With Punjab BJP leaders active in organisation, press briefings and Delhi politics, it is Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini who is repeatedly visiting Punjab and showcasing governance models ahead of the 2027 elections. If Punjab BJP already has several leaders in the state, why does it often look like Nayab Singh Saini is the one pitching the BJP model in Punjab, and who among the state leaders will finally step forward and say, “Yes, I’m ready to take on the CM role in 2027” ?
पंजाब भाजपा के नेता संगठन, प्रेस कॉन्फ्रेंस और दिल्ली की राजनीति में सक्रिय दिखाई देते हैं, लेकिन 2027 चुनाव से पहले हरियाणा के मुख्यमंत्री नायब सिंह सैनी ही बार-बार पंजाब आकर अपनी सरकार का मॉडल पेश करते नजर आते हैं। अगर पंजाब भाजपा के पास पहले से कई नेता मौजूद हैं, तो फिर ऐसा क्यों लगता है कि पंजाब में भाजपा का मॉडल सैनी ही बेच रहे हैं, और राज्य के नेताओं में से आखिर कौन आगे आकर कहेगा, “हाँ, 2027 में मुख्यमंत्री की जिम्मेदारी लेने के लिए मैं तैयार हूँ” ?
With Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini, who has been quite active in Punjab politics these days, asserting that the BJP will contest the 2027 Punjab Assembly elections alone and rule out any alliance with Akali Dal, the statement sends a clear signal about the party’s current strategy in the state. Interestingly, Punjab BJP leaders like Sunil Kumar Jakhar and Amarinder Singh, who had earlier pitched for a possible alliance with Akali Dal, now appear largely silent. If the BJP is now strongly projecting a solo fight in Punjab under the messaging of Haryana CM Nayab Singh Saini, where do leaders like Sunil Kumar Jakhar and Captain Amarinder Singh stand today ? Does the party already know how much voice the turncoats should have in key political decisions ?
