Any takers for that sacrifice today when the state is in dire straits?
Review - DEKHO
During the first Green Revolution, all the natural resources were put to exploitative use to make the nation self-sufficient in food grains. Punjabis came forward with full force.
Sheetal Angural rose quickly in Punjab politics after winning Jalandhar West in 2022 on an AAP ticket by defeating Congress leader Sushil Rinku. But his switch to BJP in 2024 changed the script sharply. Contesting the Jalandhar West by-election soon after, he suffered a heavy defeat against former colleague Mohinder Bhagat, raising serious questions about his political footing. Once seen as an emerging face, he now appears caught between parties and uncertain ground support.
शीतल अंगुराल ने पंजाब की राजनीति में तेज उभार लिया जब उन्होंने 2022 में जालंधर पश्चिम से आम आदमी पार्टी के टिकट पर कांग्रेस नेता सुशील रिंकू को हराया। लेकिन 2024 में भाजपा में जाने के बाद कहानी अचानक बदल गई। इसके तुरंत बाद जालंधर पश्चिम उपचुनाव लड़ते हुए उन्हें अपने पूर्व साथी मोहिंदर भगत से भारी हार का सामना करना पड़ा, जिससे उनकी राजनीतिक स्थिति पर गंभीर सवाल उठे। कभी उभरते चेहरे माने जाने वाले शीतल अब पार्टियों के बीच फंसे और अनिश्चित जमीनी समर्थन वाले नेता दिखाई देते हैं।
Tarun Chugh has remained one of BJP’s prominent Punjab faces, contesting from Amritsar Central in 2012 and 2017 but losing both elections. Despite those setbacks, he rose within the party to major national organisational roles and handled key responsibilities across multiple regions. His political journey has moved more toward strategy and influence than direct electoral contests. As 2027 approaches, the big question is whether Tarun Chugh will return to Punjab ground politics and test himself again in an Assembly election, or whether he is now more valuable and more comfortable in an organisational role. Is a Punjab comeback still possible, or has his career taken a different path now ?
