After distancing itself from Shaheen Bagh, attacking Tablighi Jamaat, and calling for Rohingya deportation, did AAP expect Muslim voters to remain loyal?

Looks like Kejriwal’s strategy of ‘silent surrender’ to BJP’s policies turn into a full-scale ‘Political Surrender’?
Jagdeep Singh Cheema’s move from Shiromani Akali Dal to BJP added another familiar Punjab face to the saffron camp, bringing legacy value, local recognition, and experience from Amloh and Fatehgarh Sahib contests. But joining a party and becoming its first-choice candidate are often very different milestones. BJP in Punjab is still balancing old loyalists, fresh entrants, and constituency equations while trying to expand. The real question now is whether Jagdeep Singh Cheema carries enough stature inside BJP to secure a serious ticket when the time comes, or whether he may remain useful as a symbolic recruit without guaranteed electoral reward. Is Cheema already a contender in BJP’s inner circle, or still waiting to prove his value in a crowded queue ?
जगदीप सिंह चीमा का शिरोमणि अकाली दल से भाजपा में आना पंजाब भाजपा को एक जाना-पहचाना चेहरा देता है, साथ ही विरासत, स्थानीय पहचान और अमलोह व फतेहगढ़ साहिब चुनाव लड़ने का अनुभव भी। लेकिन किसी पार्टी में शामिल होना और उसका पहली पसंद उम्मीदवार बनना, दोनों अलग बातें हैं। पंजाब भाजपा अभी पुराने वफादारों, नए शामिल नेताओं और सीट समीकरणों के बीच संतुलन बना रही है। असली सवाल अब यह है कि क्या जगदीप सिंह चीमा भाजपा में इतनी पकड़ बना चुके हैं कि समय आने पर गंभीर टिकट हासिल कर सकें, या फिर वे सिर्फ एक प्रतीकात्मक शामिल चेहरा बनकर रह जाएंगे बिना पक्के चुनावी इनाम के ? क्या जगदीप सिंह चीमा भाजपा के अंदरूनी दावेदारों में शामिल हैं, या अभी भी लंबी कतार में अपनी बारी का इंतज़ार कर रहे हैं ?
Gurdev Sharma Debi has been BJP’s familiar face in Ludhiana Central, contesting the seat in both 2017 and 2022 but falling short each time. In a constituency where urban voters often look for momentum, visibility, and a strong local connect, repeated candidacies can build recognition, but they can also raise doubts about ceiling limits. As 2027 approaches, the real question is whether BJP still sees Gurdev Sharma Debi as its best-tested option for Ludhiana Central, or whether two defeats may push the party to search for a fresher and more winnable face. Is Debi the patient contender whose time may finally come, or a repeat candidate whom the voters have already judged twice ?
