When will the establishment take these critical issues seriously? Canal irrigation has decreased from 16 lakh hectares in 1990-91 to about 11.5 lakh hectares today, yet endless discussions on water recharging and groundwater depletion continue.

Why aren't these issues getting prioritized given these alarming statistics?
AAP may have claimed a 12,091-vote win in Tarn Taran, but the real shock was how the bypoll opened, SAD leading the first three rounds despite limited resources, internal turmoil, and a battered organisation. If a ‘weakened’ SAD could still rattle AAP in its own stronghold before the turnaround from round four, is Tarn Taran actually a warning that AAP’s hold on the ground is loosening faster than it admits?
AAP ने भले ही तरन तारन में 12,091 वोटों की जीत दर्ज की हो, लेकिन असली झटका तो शुरुआती राउंड में लगा, जहां सीमित संसाधनों, आंतरिक उथल-पुथल और कमजोर संगठन के बावजूद अकाली दल पहले तीन राउंड में बढ़त बनाए हुए था। अगर इतना ‘कमज़ोर’ अकाली दल भी AAP को उसके मज़बूत इलाके में हिला सकता है, तो क्या यह संकेत है कि AAP की ज़मीनी पकड़ उतनी मज़बूत नहीं रही जितना वह दावा करती है?
With Assembly elections just sixteen months away, AAP leaders in Sangrur are racing to lay foundation stones for dozens of sports stadiums and development projects in Sunam, Lehra, and Dirba. From stadiums in 29 villages to cheques for local infrastructure, the timing raises eyebrows: are these projects truly for public benefit, or just a vote-winning spectacle? Is “Har Pind Khed Maidan” truly about villages and youth, or just a clever slogan to impress voters?
