CM Bhagwant Mann video case fresh update: Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini on Wednesday said the state government would take appropriate action in connection with the alleged fake forensic report that surfaced during the controversy surrounding a viral video purportedly linked to Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann.
Speaking to mediapersons in Patiala, Nayab Singh Saini said the government had received a report regarding the matter and a detailed investigation was currently underway. He added that authorities were examining all aspects of the case to identify those responsible and determine the motive behind the alleged fabrication.
The Haryana Chief Minister was in Punjab's Patiala district to attend the annual remembrance ceremony of Sant Balwant Singh Ji at gurdwara sahib in Rodewal village. During his visit, he paid obeisance at the shrine and offered tributes before interacting with the media.

Responding to allegations raised by leaders of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), Saini rejected the claims as baseless. He said preliminary information suggested that the name of a laboratory in Haryana had been used in connection with the purported forensic report. Investigators are now verifying how the document was prepared and whether any individuals or organisations were involved in its circulation.
Saini said that anyone found responsible would face strict action in accordance with the law.
Addressing another issue linked to the controversy, Nayab Singh Saini said the BJP respects the traditions and teachings of Sikh Gurus and would never engage in politics that hurts religious sentiments or public faith.
