भाजपा के पहले ही अकेले चुनाव लड़ने के संकेत देने के चलते भाजपा और शिरोमणि अकाली दल के बीच सीट बंटवारा फिलहाल सिर्फ एक संभावना है। लेकिन अगर दोनों दल भविष्य में किसी समझौते पर विचार करते हैं, तो गिद्दड़बाहा जैसी सीटें सुखबीर सिंह बादल के लिए पेचीदा समीकरण बन सकती हैं, जहां दोनों दलों के अपने दावेदार और मजबूत दावे हैं। क्या सुखबीर सिंह बादल के सामने बड़ा सवाल यही होगा कि भाजपा अगर अकाली दल के गढ़ में ही चुनौती देती है, तो वे अपनी पसंदीदा सीटों को कैसे बचाएंगे ?
