The Akal Takht, the highest temporal seat of Sikhism, has banned films, animations, and AI-generated videos depicting Sikh history. The religious body also reiterated strict rules against conducting Anand Karaj ceremonies at commercial venues like marriage palaces and resorts. The Akal Takht asserted its authority over religious matters, including the resolution of issues concerning sacred texts, and issued a warning against government interference in Sikh religious affairs, emphasizing the Shiromani Gurdwara Parbandhak Committee's constitutional role.
