Chandigarh, September 17, 2026: Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann’s wife Dr. Gurpreet Kaur Mann has filed defamation case against Akali Dal leader Bikram Singh Majithia, Harsimrat Kaur Badal and Congress leader Sukhpal Khaira.
She filed the complaint in a Chandigarh court yesterday under Sections 210 and 222 of the Bharatiya Nagarik Suraksha Sanhita, 2023, for committing an offence under Section 356 of the Bharatiya Nyaya Sanhita, 2023.
She has contended that Bikram Singh Majithia made sensationalised, fabricated and completely unfounded statements alleging that she has sought cash to influence the state machinery for protection of an individual accused in a grave criminal offence of rape.
She further said that the SAD leader displayed and circulated false audio recordings, photographs and CCTV footage, claiming that these materials established a financial negotiation involving her inner circle.
According to her claim all accused persons targeted her in their statements, portraying her as a person who is helping a rape accused, despite herself being a woman, only for the sake of money. She said that these frivolous allegations have caused a grave impact on the reputation, image and personal identity of the complainant.
