The manner in which the intellectuals have been neglected in promoting the mother tongue in new research and have been completely ignored in future planning, has far-reaching consequences which will be disastrous in the future.
AAP leader Manish Sisodia has claimed that 13,000 Village Defence Committees with nearly 1.3 Lakhs volunteers are active in Punjab’s anti-drug campaign. The number sounds massive, but the key question is visibility and official accountability. If such a large volunteer force really exists, why are there no public lists, IDs or district-level details ? And if this is a major state initiative, why hasn’t Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann announced it formally instead of the figure appearing through political social media posts ? Is the claim of 1.3 lakh VDC members real ground mobilisation or just a big number for political messaging ?
"आप" नेता मनीष सिसोदिया ने दावा किया है कि पंजाब में नशे के खिलाफ अभियान के तहत 13,000 ग्राम रक्षा समितियाँ (Village Defence Committees) और लगभग 1.3 लाख स्वयंसेवक सक्रिय हैं। आंकड़ा बड़ा है, लेकिन असली सवाल पारदर्शिता और आधिकारिक जानकारी का है। अगर इतनी बड़ी स्वयंसेवी ताकत वास्तव में काम कर रही है, तो उनकी सार्वजनिक सूची, पहचान पत्र या जिला स्तर का विवरण अब तक सामने क्यों नहीं आया ? और यदि यह राज्य की बड़ी पहल है, तो इसकी औपचारिक घोषणा मुख्यमंत्री भगवंत मान द्वारा क्यों नहीं की गई, बजाय इसके कि यह जानकारी केवल राजनीतिक सोशल मीडिया पोस्ट के जरिए सामने आए ? क्या 1.3 लाख ग्राम रक्षा समितियों के सदस्यों का दावा वास्तविक जमीनी व्यवस्था है या सिर्फ राजनीतिक संदेश का हिस्सा ?
As former Deputy CM Dushyant Chautala questions why pension hikes for the elderly, widows and disabled have not been implemented even after announcements, the debate is now intersecting with Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini’s political priorities. With Saini increasingly active in Punjab politics and cross-border political messaging, critics are asking whether Haryana’s core welfare issues are getting the same attention at home. While Nayab Singh Saini looks politically busy in Punjab, are Haryana’s pensioners still waiting for governance back home ?
