PRESS STATEMENT
I challenge the producer and director of Satluj to place before the people of Punjab the complete documentary evidence, official records, judicial findings and authenticated data of 25,000 missing or illegally cremated bodies portrayed in the film or we will take the next step: S. Ravneet Singh Bittu Union Minister of State for Railways and Food Processing Industries
Bittu says If they authenticate the data then I will feel public apology
Chandigarh 12.07.2026
The makers of Satluj cannot hide behind the excuse of “creative freedom” while presenting disputed claims as established history. Punjab’s painful past is not a script to be selectively edited to suit a narrative. In a media statement issued today S. Ravneet Singh Bittu Union Minister of State for Railways and Food Processing Industries said that I challenge the producer and director of Satluj movie to place before the people of Punjab the complete documentary evidence, official records, judicial findings and authenticated data that conclusively establish the figure of 25,000 missing or illegally cremated bodies portrayed in the film. If this figure is based merely on an estimate or allegation, why has it been projected as an established historical fact? Why were viewers not informed that this number has not been conclusively established by any final judicial determination?
Further bittu said that The people of Punjab deserve answers for Equally disturbing omissions and selective portrayal of Punjab’s darkest chapter. Why are the massacres of innocent Hindus, bus passengers, shopkeepers, government employees, labourers and ordinary citizens brutally killed by terrorists not depicted with the same intensity? Why has the immense sacrifice of Punjab Police personnel, security forces and countless brave citizens who fought terrorism been underplayed? Why are the thousands of families devastated by terrorist violence virtually absent from the narrative?
Why has one side of history been amplified while the suffering of thousands of other victims has been marginalised? Why were controversial claims presented without clearly distinguishing between allegations, estimates and officially established facts?
Bittu said that No responsible filmmaker has the right to distort history by presenting contested figures as unquestionable truth. Punjab paid a terrible price during the years of terrorism. Every innocent victim deserves justice and remembrance—irrespective of religion, community or ideology.
I call upon the makers of Satluj to publicly release the documentary basis for the figure of 25,000 within a reasonable time. If they fail to substantiate this claim with credible and verifiable evidence, they owe the people of Punjab a clear public clarification that the figure is not an officially verified count. We will examine all appropriate legal and constitutional remedies available to ensure that historical facts are not misrepresented before the nation.
Punjab’s history cannot be rewritten through selective storytelling. Truth must prevail over propaganda, facts over fiction, and evidence over emotion.
