Project Cheetah: Displacing 5,000 people for lions and rushing cheetah translocation with no social impact surveys— Are we truly prioritizing conservation?
Review - DEKHO
With only 6,500 Cheetahs left in the wild, can we afford the risks to their welfare vis-a vis local communities?
Farmers were once at the heart of the Akali Dal’s political strength. But the 2020 farm laws became a major turning point, with the Akali Dal breaking its long alliance with the BJP over the issue. Now, with the possibility of the two parties moving closer again, the Akali Dal faces a difficult political test: Can it rebuild trust among farmers after taking a stand against the farm laws, while also explaining any new political equation with the BJP ? What will matter most for the Akali Dal’s farmer connect before 2027 ?
किसान कभी अकाली दल की राजनीतिक ताकत का सबसे बड़ा आधार रहे हैं। लेकिन 2020 के कृषि कानून एक बड़ा मोड़ साबित हुए और अकाली दल ने इसी मुद्दे पर भाजपा के साथ अपना पुराना गठबंधन तोड़ दिया। अब दोनों दलों के फिर करीब आने की चर्चा के बीच अकाली दल के सामने एक बड़ा राजनीतिक सवाल है: क्या कृषि कानूनों के खिलाफ स्टैंड लेने के बाद पार्टी किसानों का भरोसा फिर जीत पाएगी और साथ ही भाजपा के साथ किसी नए राजनीतिक समीकरण को लेकर अपनी स्थिति साफ कर पाएगी ? 2027 से पहले किसानों के साथ अकाली दल का रिश्ता मजबूत करने के लिए सबसे जरूरी क्या होगा ?
With Amritpal Singh reportedly considering contesting from another seat in Malwa, possibly even against Sukhbir Singh Badal, the challenge for the Shiromani Akali Dal could go beyond one constituency. Akali Dal (Waris Punjab De) is trying to position Amritpal as a statewide leader, while the SAD is already working to rebuild its traditional Panthic base before 2027. If Amritpal expands his political reach from Majha into Malwa, could he take away the very voters the Akali Dal needs for its comeback ? What would Amritpal Singh’s growing political reach mean for the Akali Dal ?
