In last successive years, Punjab produced more than 13 million tons of wheat, contributing 30% to the nation's food reserves.

When will Governments pay attention to ensure that the buffer stock doesn't run out or that private parties don’t manipulate the situation, which the public may not fully understand?
Akali Dal Punar Surjit has kept its distance from the Sukhbir Singh Badal-led Shiromani Akali Dal, but the faction has also made it clear that it is open to an alliance with the BJP. Giani Harpreet Singh’s recent letter to Amit Shah, seeking central action on drugs, gang networks and other concerns, adds another layer to that political outreach. But what happens if the BJP and the Badal-led Shiromani Akali Dal finally come together for 2027 ? Will Punar Surjit still keep its distance from the Badal camp or will its openness to the BJP force it to rethink that red line ?
अकाली दल पुनर सुरजीत ने सुखबीर सिंह बादल के नेतृत्व वाले शिरोमणि अकाली दल से दूरी बनाए रखी है लेकिन इस गुट ने यह भी साफ किया है कि वह भाजपा के साथ गठबंधन के लिए तैयार है। ज्ञानी हरप्रीत सिंह की ओर से अमित शाह को हाल में लिखे गए पत्र में ड्रग्स, गैंग नेटवर्क और अन्य मुद्दों पर केंद्र से कार्रवाई की मांग की गई है, जिससे इस राजनीतिक संपर्क को एक और आयाम मिलता है। लेकिन अगर 2027 के लिए भाजपा और सुखबीर सिंह बादल के नेतृत्व वाला शिरोमणि अकाली दल आखिरकार साथ आ जाते हैं, तो क्या होगा ? क्या पुनर सुरजीत बादल खेमे से दूरी बनाए रखेगा या भाजपा के साथ गठबंधन की उसकी इच्छा उसे अपना यह रुख बदलने पर मजबूर करेगी ?
The Shiromani Akali Dal is pushing for an alliance with the BJP at a time when its old political network has changed sharply. Several powerful faces who stood with the party in the 2022 election are now with different Akali factions or Waris Punjab De. With the party already weakened by this fragmentation, is the alliance pitch a calculated strategy to rebuild its electoral strength or a sign that it no longer sees a solo fight as a realistic path to power in Punjab ?
