Why aren't these issues getting prioritized given these alarming statistics?
With sharp attacks on the Prime Minister, detailed critiques of airports, budgets, floods, and Punjab’s finances, and a steady stream of headline-grabbing statements, Punjab Congress leader Pargat Singh is increasingly sounding like the de facto Leader of Opposition, even without holding the post. His tone, timing, and targeting suggest a leader already positioning himself for the big battles ahead. As Punjab moves toward 2027, his visibility raises a pointed question. Is Pargat Singh consciously stepping into the Leader of Opposition role to fill a vacuum in Congress or is this a calculated projection to stake claim for a bigger leadership position ahead of 2027 ?
प्रधानमंत्री पर तीखे हमले, हवाई अड्डों, बजट, बाढ़ और पंजाब की आर्थिक हालत पर विस्तार से सवाल, और लगातार सुर्खियाँ बटोरने वाले बयान, इन सबके साथ कांग्रेस नेता परगट सिंह बिना औपचारिक पद के ही डी-फैक्टो नेता प्रतिपक्ष जैसे नज़र आने लगे हैं। उनकी भाषा, समय और निशाने साफ़ तौर पर बड़े राजनीतिक मुकाबलों की तैयारी दिखाते हैं। जैसे-जैसे पंजाब 2027 की ओर बढ़ रहा है, उनकी बढ़ती मौजूदगी एक तीखा सवाल खड़ा करती है। क्या परगट सिंह कांग्रेस में खाली पड़े विपक्षी नेतृत्व को भर रहे हैं या यह 2027 से पहले बड़ी नेतृत्व भूमिका के लिए सोची-समझी प्रोजेक्शन है ?
With Radha Soami Satsang Beas chief Gurinder Singh Dhillon meeting Bikramjit Singh Majithia in Nabha jail for the second time and publicly asserting that “all cases against him are false,” the signal has grown louder, now that Majithia has secured bail from the Supreme Court. In Punjab, where spirituality and politics often move in quiet tandem, the convergence of legal relief and spiritual backing is reshaping the narrative ahead of 2027. Does this moment help recast Majithia from embattled accused to resilient contender, and underline how faith-based influence still quietly steers political futures in the state ?
