Where is Punjab heading with alarming levels of government debt?
As questions grow about India’s stand on world issues, troubled ties with neighbours, and rising tensions at home, the spotlight turns to Narendra Modi. A leader once seen as firm and confident now faces doubts about direction. When strong speeches do not match clear action abroad, and talk of unity sits beside growing divisions inside the country, what does leadership mean at this stage of Modi’s rule ? Is this careful control or are problems being ignored until they pile up ? Which view fits the moment best ?
जब वैश्विक मुद्दों पर भारत की भूमिका, पड़ोसी देशों से बिगड़ते रिश्ते और देश के भीतर बढ़ते तनाव पर सवाल उठ रहे हैं, तो नजरें नरेंद्र मोदी पर टिकती हैं। एक समय मजबूत और आत्मविश्वासी माने जाने वाले नेता को लेकर अब दिशा को लेकर शंकाएँ हैं। जब विदेश नीति पर कड़े भाषण साफ़ कदमों में नहीं बदलते, और एकता की बातों के साथ देश के भीतर विभाजन बढ़ता दिखे, तो मोदी के शासन के इस दौर में नेतृत्व का अर्थ क्या रह जाता है ? क्या यह सोचा-समझा नियंत्रण है या समस्याओं को तब तक टालना जब तक वे और बड़ी न हो जाएँ ? इस समय को सबसे सही तरीके से कौन-सा नजरिया बयान करता है ?
As Giani Harpreet Singh publicly calls for Sukhbir Singh Badal to step down for pathic unity, offering his own resignation in return, the important question is being ignored. Has any Akali faction outside his leadership actually shown the ability to unite the panth on the ground ? Electoral setbacks aside, Badal still commands the widest organisational network and recall in Akali politics. Fragmentation did not start with one leader, and it may not end with one resignation, especially with 2027 nearing. Without a clear alternative showing real ground strength, is removing Sukhbir Badal about rebuilding the Akali movement or just weakening the only centre that still holds it together ?
