Convener of AAP Punjab[संपादित करें]

In 2017, Mann was appointed the convener of AAP Punjab.[19] In 2018 he resigned from the convener post after Arvind Kejriwal tendered an unconditional apology to Bikram Singh Majithia over Kejriwal's allegations about Majithia's involvement in the drug mafia case.[20] He contested the 2017 Punjab Legislative Assembly election, from Jalalabad against Sukhbir Singh Badal and Ravneet Singh Bittu.[21] He lost the elections to Badal by 18,500 votes.[22]

In January 2019, Mann was appointed the convener of AAP Punjab for a second time. His political rivals had in past criticized him over alcohol use.[23] Mann has denied these allegations. In 2019, during a party rally in Barnala, Mann announced that he had denounced alcohol and swore never to touch it again.[24][25]

Member of Parliament[संपादित करें]

First term (2014–2019)[संपादित करें]

In May 2014, he was elected to the 16th Lok Sabha from Sangrur Lok Sabha constituency after defeating Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa from Shiromani Akali Dal.[26] He received 533,237 total votes and won the election with a margin of 211,721 votes.[27]

  • 11 December 2014 – 25 May 2019: Member, Joint Committee on Offices of Profit[28]

Second term (2019–2022)[संपादित करें]

In May 2019, Mann was re-elected to 17th Lok Sabha from Sangrur constituency in the 2019 Indian general election. He won his second term in the Parliament with a margin of 110,211 votes. He got 413,561 votes while contesting against Kewal Singh Dhillon from Indian National Congress and Parminder Singh Dhindsa from Shiromani Akali Dal.[29] He was the only Member of parliament from Aam Aadmi Party in the lower house (Lok Sabha) of the parliament.[30]

On 18 January 2022, he was chosen as the Chief Minister of Punjab candidate from the Aam Aadmi Party for the 2022 Punjab Legislative Assembly election. The selection was reportedly done by polling from the public and the results were declared by the party chief Arvind Kejriwal.[31][32]

On 9 February, Mann raised issues about farmers in the Lok Sabha. The payment to sugarcane farmers for 2020–21 and 2021–22 had been pending. He appealed for clearing the due early along with interest. He asked for compensation for the losses in cotton farmers due to the pest attack. he asked that the Union government should recognize the farmers who died during the 2020–2021 Indian farmers' protest.[33]

Parliamentary Committee assignments
  • 13 September 2019 onwards: Member, Standing Committee on Food, Consumer Affairs and Public Distribution[28]
    • Member, Consultative Committee, Committee on External Affairs[28]

In 2021, the Parliamentary Committee on Food, Consumer Affairs and Public Distribution submitted a report to the Union Government recommending the implementation of the Essential Commodities Act, 2020. The Essential Commodities Act, 2020 was one among the three controversial 2020 Indian agriculture acts that led to the year-long 2020–2021 Indian farmers' protest. Mann publicly released his statement that was made during the Committee meeting on 5 June 2020. In his statement, Mann had raised concerns that these farm laws would increase hoarding. Removal of onions and tomatoes from the list of Essential Commodities would lead to price rise due to illegal stockpiling to increase the price and then selling at higher prices. This will create hardships for the poor. He also raised the issue of hoarding potatoes.[34]

Mann contested the 2022 Punjab Assembly elections and won. AAP won a large majority of 92 out of total 117 seats. Mann was designated as the CM. Two days before taking the oath as CM of Punjab, Mann resigned from his post of MP Sangrur on 14 March 2022.[35][36][37]

Chief Minister of Punjab (2022–)[संपादित करें]

On 18 January 2022, Mann was chosen as the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) candidate for the Chief Minister of Punjab in the 2022 Punjab Legislative Assembly election, based on the party's public poll that overwhelmingly weighed in his favour.[38]

On 10 March, the election results showed Mann as the winner from Dhuri Assembly constituency with a significant difference of 58,206 votes, and the next day he was elected as the leader of the AAP legislative party.[39] The party itself went on to win 92 seats out of 117 in the state's assembly elections.[40] Mann took the oath as the 17th Chief Minister of Punjab on 16 March 2022 at Khatkar Kalan, the ancestral village of freedom fighter Bhagat Singh.[41][42]

Ending VIP culture[संपादित करें]

Even before taking the oath, CM designate Mann took steps to end the VIP culture and met the Director General of Police. The next day the police DGP in charge of security ordered the withdrawal of police security from 122 former MLAs and ministers. A total of 384 policemen involved in the security of those politicians were transferred to their parent unit. Mann had stated that the police force was needed for the security of the people and not VIPs. The security of former chief ministers was continued as they had been provided security on the instructions of the Union Home Ministry.[43][44] AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal said Mann had "removed the security of old ministers and gave security to the public".[45]

Employment[संपादित करें]

On 19 March 2022, during the first Cabinet meeting, Mann announced his decision to fill 25,000 job openings in various departments of Punjab government. 10,000 of those vacancies were in the Punjab Police.[46]

On 22 March, he announced his decision to make the 35,000 employees in the state working on a temporary, contractual basis permanent government employees. He will bring a bill to the assembly to this effect. Announcing his decision he said, "I don't want these teachers protesting on the roads, I had promised to regularize their services if we are voted to power and I am fulfilling my promise."[47]

On 5 September, Teachers' Day in 2022, he announced that payment of teachers from government institutions in Punjab will be according to UGC's Seventh Pay Commission from 1 October 2022.[48]

Transportation[संपादित करें]

The tariff charged by the PRTC and PEPSU buses for the airport were announced at half the rates being charged by the private bus operators. Mann said that this service would break the monopoly of a few families in the bus business with political links.[49]

Language and Culture[संपादित करें]

On 19 November 2022, while giving a speech at Guru Nanak Dev University to commemorate Punjabi Language Month, Mann announced a government policy to require all public signboards to prominently feature Punjabi over other languages.

Controversies[संपादित करें]

Dispute with the Akal Takht[संपादित करें]

In 2026, Mann became involved in a dispute with the Akal Takht over a viral video that allegedly showed him behaving disrespectfully towards Sikh religious imagery. Mann denied that he was the person in the video and maintained that the footage was fake. He later appeared before the Akal Takht in connection with the controversy and supported an investigation into the video's authenticity.

The dispute continued amid conflicting claims over forensic examinations of the footage. On 15 June 2026, the Akal Takht declared Mann “Guru Dokhi” and “Khalsa Panth Virodhi”, saying that he had misled the Sikh religious authorities over the matter. Mann continued to deny that he was the person shown in the video.[51]

The controversy deepened after questions were raised over competing forensic reports concerning the video. Haryana Police subsequently arrested two men over the alleged attempt to procure a fabricated forensic report concerning the disputed video. The case was registered at police station following a complaint by a professional associated with digital forensics and cyber investigations. According to police, the complainant alleged that he had been approached to prepare a report supporting the claim that the video was AI-generated or manipulated. Mann disputed the allegations and claimed that forensic laboratory personnel had been intimidated into saying that they were paid to prepare a false report.[52]

On 20 June, the Akal Takht released excerpts from a recording of Mann's earlier appearance before the religious authorities. The recording reportedly showed Mann repeatedly denying that he was the person in the viral video and agreeing to an investigation. Following the release, the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee called for his resignation.[53]

The release of selected portions of the recording also drew criticism. Former acting Akal Takht jathedar Giani Harpreet Singh argued that publishing only excerpts could be misleading and called for the full context to be made public.[54]

2026 Punjab Assembly incident[संपादित करें]

In May 2026, opposition legislators accused Bhagwant Mann of attending a session of the Punjab Legislative Assembly while under the influence of alcohol and demanded that he undergo an alcohol test. The allegation led to protests and disruption in the Assembly. Mann rejected the accusation, while Aam Aadmi Party leaders described it as an attempt to defame him.[55]

Allegations concerning alcohol use[संपादित करें]

In 2016, suspended Aam Aadmi Party MP Harinder Singh Khalsa complained to Lok Sabha Speaker Sumitra Mahajan that Mann, who was seated next to him in Parliament, attended the House after consuming alcohol. Mann denied the allegation. Contemporary reports said that the Speaker was examining complaints concerning the matter.[56]

In September 2022, opposition parties alleged that Bhagwant Mann had been removed from a Lufthansa flight from Frankfurt to Delhi because he was intoxicated. Shiromani Akali Dal president Sukhbir Singh Badal, citing accounts attributed to co-passengers, claimed that Mann was unable to board the flight and that the incident contributed to a delay. The Aam Aadmi Party rejected the allegation as false and described it as political propaganda.[57][58]

The airline stated that the flight had been delayed because of a delayed inbound flight and an aircraft change, rather than confirming the allegations against Mann. The incident drew further attention because Mann had publicly announced in 2019 that he was giving up alcohol.[59]

Dispute over investigation into missing saroops[संपादित करें]

In 2025–26, Mann's government became involved in a dispute with the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee and Sikh religious authorities over the investigation into 328 missing saroops (copies) of the Guru Granth Sahib. The state government revived the matter and pursued an investigation into the circumstances surrounding the missing saroops, while the SGPC objected to what it viewed as government interference in Sikh religious affairs.[60]

The controversy intensified after Mann publicly linked 169 saroops found at the Rasokhana Nabh Kanwal Raja Sahib shrine in Nawanshahr with the missing saroops case. The shrine management rejected the claim and said that it possessed records showing that its saroops were not part of the missing batch. The episode drew criticism from opposition politicians, who accused Mann of making an unsubstantiated claim and interfering in religious matters.[61]

Amid the dispute, the Akal Takht permitted the SGPC to cooperate with the state investigation into the 328 missing saroops, while stating that such cooperation should remain limited to the case and should not be treated as acceptance of government interference in SGPC affairs.[62]

Philanthropy[संपादित करें]

Mann began a non-government organization, the Lok Lehar Foundation, to aid children with physical deformities as a result of groundwater pollution in the border areas of Punjab.[63]

Personal life[संपादित करें]

Mann is a comic poet who writes political satire. He is also a volleyball player.[64]

He was married to Inderpreet Kaur until their divorce in 2015. They have a son (Dilshan) and a daughter (Seerat).[65][66]

At the age of 48, Mann married 32-year-old Gurpreet Kaur in 2022. She is a doctor by profession.[67][68][69] They have a daughter, born in March 2024.[70]

Addressing a rally in Barnala in January 2019, Mann said he had stopped consuming alcohol, on his mother's advice.[71]

Maan's daughter Seerat accused him of physical abuse towards her and her mother, alcoholism, and habitual lying. She also said that she would refer to him as CM Maan.[72]

On 11 May 2026, Mann's cousin, Gyan, joined the Bharatiya Janata Party.[73]
