Punajb Newsline, Anandpur Sahib-
Punjab Education and Information & Public Relations Minister Harjot Singh Bains today launched a major digital initiative, introducing the “AnandpurSahib350.com” website and mobile application. The platform aims to provide a smooth, safe and spiritually fulfilling experience to the lakhs of devotees arriving at Sri Anandpur Sahib to mark the 350th Martyrdom Anniversary of Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji.
Bains stated that the state-of-the-art digital platform acts as a one-stop centre, offering complete event-related information including schedules of commemorative programmes, live streaming, Nagar Kirtan routes, and historical details—available in both Punjabi and English.
He emphasised that the Rupnagar District Administration, inspired by the spirit of Sarbat Da Bhala, is committed to providing top-quality facilities to every devotee. Through the platform, visitors can access real-time updates on over 30 designated parking areas, three Tent Cities, their capacity status, and accommodation booking options. A special ‘Tractor-Trolley City’, located just one kilometre from Takht Sri Kesgarh Sahib, has also been set up to strengthen last-mile connectivity.
Providing details about transportation, Bains informed that 65 mini-buses and 500 e-rickshaws will operate round-the-clock to ensure seamless shuttle services between all parking sites and key religious locations such as Gurdwara Sisganj Sahib and the main event venues.
For health and safety, the administration has arranged 19 Aam Aadmi Clinics, two specialised eye-check camps, multiple medical check-up stations with free medicines and tests, along with a strategically deployed fleet of ambulances for emergency support.
To maintain cleanliness, 26 mobile toilet vans with hourly cleaning schedules have been deployed, along with dedicated bathing facilities. Integrated CCTV surveillance, LED screens, and a public announcement system will provide real-time traffic updates and essential alerts to keep the pilgrims informed at all times.
Bains added that the website is now live, and the accompanying mobile app is available for download on both the Google Play Store and Apple App Store. He expressed gratitude to all sevadars and community members, urging everyone to unite in making the 350th Martyrdom Anniversary of Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib Ji a memorable and successful event.
