Is this a reflection of regional pride, historical tradition, or something else?

National population share of Punjab in the country is 2.29 percent. Still, personnel below officer rank in the army have an 8% contribution from Punjab.
After months of open friction, Channi and Randhawa are now set to share the stage with Raja Warring, following Sachin Pilot’s direct efforts to bring rival camps closer. With 2027 approaching and Congress facing a crowded political field, is this a genuine attempt to end the factional war or simply an election-time truce to put up a united face ?
कई महीनों की खुली खींचतान के बाद अब चरणजीत सिंह चन्नी और सुखजिंदर सिंह रंधावा का राजा वड़िंग के साथ मंच साझा करना, सचिन पायलट की गुटों को करीब लाने की सीधी कोशिशों का नतीजा माना जा रहा है। 2027 करीब है और कांग्रेस के सामने पंजाब में मुकाबला लगातार पेचीदा होता जा रहा है। ऐसे में क्या यह गुटबाजी खत्म करने की गंभीर कोशिश है या फिर चुनाव से पहले एकजुट चेहरा दिखाने के लिए किया गया सिर्फ एक राजनीतिक समझौता ?
Congress says its leadership depth is a strength, with several leaders capable of taking on the top job. Rather than projecting a CM face before the 2027 election, the party says its priority is to win first and decide who gets what role later. But when multiple leaders have ambitions for the top post, keeping everyone together could become a political test in itself. Can Congress turn its CM hopefuls into a united campaign or could the race for the chair start before the race for Punjab is over ?
