Sandeep Jakhar, who won Abohar on Congress's ticket in 2022 with a clear lead, was suspended from Congress in 2023 and has repeatedly claimed loyalty to Sunil Kumar Jakhar. But with Sunil now seemingly sidelined by the BJP, do you think Sandeep’s blind allegiance was a political miscalculation that could cost him his own future?
संदीप जाखड़, जिन्होंने 2022 में कांग्रेस के टिकट पर अबोहर से स्पष्ट बढ़त के साथ जीत हासिल की थी, 2023 में कांग्रेस से निलंबित कर दिए गए थे और उन्होंने बार-बार अपनी निष्ठा सुनील कुमार जाखड़ के प्रति जताई है। लेकिन अब जब सुनील खुद भाजपा द्वारा किनारे किए गए लग रहे हैं, क्या आपको लगता है कि संदीप जाखड़ की अंधभक्तिपूर्ण निष्ठा एक राजनीतिक गलती थी जो उनके भविष्य को नुकसान पहुँचा सकती है?
Vijay Inder Singla first rose as MP from Sangrur in 2009, defeating a senior Akali leader by 40,000+ votes, signalling a new Congress wave. But in 2014, he lost the MP seat by 3,51,827 votes, one of Punjab’s biggest margins. He returned as MLA from Sangrur in 2017, yet was defeated again in 2022. So, heading into 2027, does Singla stand as a serious contender in Sangrur, or just a former MP-turned-MLA whose ground connection has weakened over time?
