Why is Punjab opposition leader Partap Singh Bajwa not raising his voice against Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann at the moment, has he taken a vow of silence?
After slipping to fifth place and even losing its security deposit in the Tarn Taran bypoll, the BJP is now gearing up to contest the local elections ‘with enthusiasm’. With religious events, kirtan darbars, and grand programmes taking centre stage, the real question is: is the BJP trying to rebuild its organisation in Punjab, or simply trying to rebuild its confidence?
तरन तारन उपचुनाव में पाँचवें स्थान पर फिसलने और ज़मानत तक जब्त करवाने के बाद अब भाजपा ज़िला परिषद और ब्लॉक समिति चुनाव ‘जोश’ के साथ लड़ने की तैयारी कर रही है। धार्मिक कार्यक्रमों, कीर्तन दरबारों और बड़े आयोजनों के बीच असली सवाल यह है: क्या भाजपा पंजाब में अपना संगठन दोबारा खड़ा कर रही है या बस अपना आत्मविश्वास?
After a humiliating fourth-place finish in the Tarn Taran bypoll, where the Congress candidate not only lost but even forfeited his security deposit, the Punjab Congress is talking about “internal review” and “restructuring. Despite heavy campaigning by Raja Warring, Partap Singh Bajwa, Charanjit Singh Channi, Pargat Singh, and others, the party still collapsed. In such a scenario, who in the Punjab Congress will finally accept responsibility for this avoidable embarrassment?
