Khaira demands action against Atishi over Sikh Guru remarks

Senior Congress leader and Bholath MLA Sukhpal Singh Khaira on Saturday cited an official bulletin issued by the Speaker of the Delhi Vidhan Sabha along with a referenced forensic laboratory report to allege that AAP’s Leader of Opposition, Atishi Marlena, made derogatory remarks against Sikh Guru during proceedings of the House.

Describing the development as serious and unprecedented, Khaira said the matter had moved beyond political dispute and now rested on official legislative records. According to Khaira, the bulletin dated January 6, 2026, records that the presiding officer received a forensic report confirming the authenticity of the remarks attributed to Atishi. He said this documentation, issued under the authority of the Speaker, constituted formal verification and not merely an opposition claim.

Khaira said the Congress Party was demanding the registration of a criminal case against Atishi for allegedly hurting religious sentiments, along with an unconditional public apology.
