How many years has the government led by the people who claimed their priority is the Panthik agenda ruled the state? Have they ever bothered to collect and register the historic morchas and unlimited sacrifices made by cadres and non-cadres? The maximum of these are unregistered and unlisted.

What will future generations learn when there is no availability of an authentic document or written manuscripts of those times? How uncaring and casual isn’t it?
The Congress has often criticised the BJP for centralised decision-making and a lack of internal democracy. Yet in Punjab, when the party's high command retained Amarinder Singh Raja Warring as PPCC Chief despite open resistance from former Chief Minister Charanjit Singh Channi and several senior leaders, dissent was brushed aside. As both the Congress and the BJP insist that their High Command's decisions are final, is there now any real difference between the two parties when it comes to internal democracy, or have both become equally centralised and intolerant of internal dissent ?
कांग्रेस अक्सर भाजपा पर सत्ता का अत्यधिक केंद्रीकरण और आंतरिक लोकतंत्र की कमी का आरोप लगाती रही है। लेकिन पंजाब में, जब पार्टी हाईकमान ने पूर्व मुख्यमंत्री चरणजीत सिंह चन्नी और कई वरिष्ठ नेताओं के खुले विरोध के बावजूद अमरिंदर सिंह राजा वड़िंग को पंजाब कांग्रेस अध्यक्ष बनाए रखने का फैसला किया, तो असहमति को लगभग नज़रअंदाज़ कर दिया गया। ऐसे में, जब कांग्रेस और भाजपा दोनों ही अपनी-अपनी हाईकमान के फैसलों को अंतिम मानते हैं, तो क्या आंतरिक लोकतंत्र के मामले में अब दोनों पार्टियों के बीच कोई वास्तविक अंतर बचा है, या दोनों ही धीरे-धीरे समान रूप से केंद्रीकृत और असहमति के प्रति असहिष्णु होती जा रही हैं ?
The Congress describes the Punjab crisis as an organisational disagreement, but the battle between Charanjit Singh Channi and Amarinder Singh Raja Warring appears to run much deeper. Behind the meetings, reshuffles and public displays of unity lies a larger struggle over political influence, organisational control and the race to become the party's face for the 2027 Assembly elections. If the Congress insists this is not about personal ambition, then what is really fueling the Channi–Warring tussle ?
