With the 2027 Punjab elections approaching, BJP leaders are seeking clarity on a possible alliance with the Shiromani Akali Dal.

2027 के पंजाब विधानसभा चुनाव नज़दीक आने के साथ, भाजपा के नेता शिरोमणि अकाली दल के साथ संभावित गठबंधन पर स्पष्टता चाहते हैं। भाजपा कह रही है कि वह अकेले चुनाव लड़ने की तैयारी कर रही है लेकिन गठबंधन को लेकर उसके अपने नेताओं में भी असमंजस बना हुआ है। 2022 के चुनावों में सिर्फ़ दो सीटें जीतने के बाद, क्या भाजपा पंजाब में अकेले अपना मज़बूत जनाधार बना सकती है या उसे चुनाव में बड़ी चुनौती पेश करने के लिए अब भी अपने पुराने साथी की ज़रूरत है ?

Can Punjab BJP turn its MSP promise into trust ?
