The relocation of students from Punjab to Canada in large numbers has now started to backfire on their status in Canada. Who is responsible? The mushrooming of unrecognized colleges in Canada, which provide visa cover letters at huge cost with their selfish motives of money-making.

Why is there no check by enrolling these colleges in Indian embassies in Canada to avoid potential frauds?
With just 2,038 votes (1.33%) in Sardulgarh, Jagjit Singh Milkha finished at the bottom of the 2022 contest, underscoring how marginal the BJP remains in rural Malwa despite being in power at the Centre. Even in a multi-cornered fight and during a high-visibility election, the party failed to make any meaningful impact on the ground.
2022 के चुनाव में सरदूलगढ़ से जगजीत सिंह मिल्खा को सिर्फ 2,038 वोट (1.33%) मिले और वे सबसे आख़िरी स्थान पर रहे। यह नतीजा दिखाता है कि ग्रामीण मालवा में भाजपा की पकड़ कितनी कमजोर है, जबकि पार्टी केंद्र में सत्ता में है। बहु-कोणीय मुकाबले और ज़्यादा चर्चा वाले चुनाव के बावजूद, पार्टी ज़मीन पर कोई असर नहीं दिखा सकी।
In Bhucho Mandi, a seat that has historically seen Congress victories in 2012 and 2017, the 2022 election unfolded during a powerful AAP wave across Punjab. In that context, Rupinderjit Singh, contesting on a Bharatiya Janata Party ticket, managed just 2,330 votes (1.56%), finishing at the very bottom of the race. The result highlighted how marginal the BJP remains in rural Malwa, even during a multi-cornered contest and despite being in power at the Centre. Does this performance reflect the limits of Rupinderjit Singh as a candidate or does it expose the BJP’s near-absence on the ground in rural Punjab, where national power still fails to translate into local votes ?
