Parkash Chand Garg was once a key non Sikh face of Akali politics in Sangrur, winning the seat in 2012 before losing in 2017. His shift to Dhuri in 2022 brought poor results, and after disagreements with the Badal camp, moves through other Akali factions, and now returning closer to the Badal fold, his political path has seen many changes.
प्रकाश चंद गर्ग कभी संगरूर में अकाली राजनीति का एक प्रमुख गैर सिख चेहरा माने जाते थे। उन्होंने 2012 में सीट जीती, लेकिन 2017 में हार गए। 2022 में धूरी से लड़ना उनके लिए बुरा साबित हुआ। बादल गुट से मतभेद, दूसरे अकाली गुटों में जाना, और अब फिर बादल खेमे के करीब आना, उनकी राजनीतिक यात्रा में कई बदलाव आए हैं।
Ravi Preet Singh Sidhu’s political journey has taken a full turn, leaving Shiromani Akali Dal to join BJP in 2021, then returning to Akali Dal in 2024, and now being openly projected by Sukhbir Singh Badal as the face for Talwandi Sabo well ahead of 2027. With SAD trying to rebuild through early candidates and returning leaders, Talwandi Sabo has become an important test seat. The big question is whether Ravi Preet Singh Sidhu’s comeback can actually convert into votes on the ground, or whether frequent party shifts may still raise doubts among voters. Is he SAD’s revival card in Talwandi Sabo, or a gamble that still needs public trust ?
