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?
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 ?
राधा स्वामी सत्संग ब्यास के प्रमुख गुरिंदर सिंह ढिल्लों की नाभा जेल में बिक्रमजीत सिंह मजीठिया से दूसरी मुलाकात, और यह सार्वजनिक बयान कि “उनके खिलाफ सभी मामले झूठे हैं”, अब मजीठिया को सुप्रीम कोर्ट से ज़मानत मिलने के बाद और भी अहम हो जाता है। पंजाब में, जहाँ धर्म, राजनीति और जनधारणा अक्सर एक-दूसरे से जुड़ जाती हैं, आध्यात्मिक समर्थन और कानूनी राहत का यह मेल 2027 से पहले एक नई राजनीतिक कहानी गढ़ता दिख रहा है। क्या ज़मानत और आध्यात्मिक भरोसा मिलकर मजीठिया को एक बार फिर मज़बूत दावेदार के रूप में पेश करेंगे, और क्या यह दिखाता है कि पंजाब की राजनीति में आस्था अब भी भविष्य की दिशा तय करने की ताक़त रखती है ?
With Navjot Kaur Sidhu publicly quitting the Congress after a bitter showdown with the party’s Punjab leadership, and openly accusing the state unit of deals, money politics, and internal sabotage, the spotlight is no longer just on factionalism, it’s on direction. Once elected on a BJP ticket, then a Congress face, and now politically unanchored again, her exit adds another layer to Punjab Congress’s leadership churn. Is this resignation a moral protest against a party she believes has lost its soul, or the opening act of yet another realignment in a state where exits often precede new entries ? And as Congress struggles to contain public dissent from its own veterans, does this episode strengthen the perception that Punjab politics is becoming less about ideology and more about survival, leverage, and timing ?
