In last successive years, Punjab produced more than 13 million tons of wheat, contributing 30% to the nation's food reserves. However, this year only 9.6 million tons of wheat was contributed to the central food pool , yet the percentage increased to 51%. Does this mean wheat production has decreased across the country?

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?
Shiromani Akali Dal won Anandpur Sahib in 1997, but since then it has never been able to take this seat again. The party has often depended on alliances instead of putting up strong candidates of its own. In 2022, the SAD–BSP alliance fielded Nutan Kumar (Nitin Nanda), who later joined AAP in 2024. With 2027 coming up, will SAD finally choose a strong, independent, and locally popular candidate for Anandpur Sahib, or will it again repeat its old pattern of weak choices and alliance dependence?
शिरोमणि अकाली दल ने 1997 में आनंदपुर साहिब सीट जीती थी, लेकिन उसके बाद से यह सीट फिर कभी नहीं जीत पाया। पार्टी अक्सर अपने मजबूत उम्मीदवारों की बजाय गठबंधन पर निर्भर रही है। 2022 में SAD–BSP गठबंधन ने नूतन कुमार (नितिन नंदा) को उम्मीदवार बनाया था, जो 2024 में AAP में शामिल हो गए। अब 2027 के चुनाव करीब हैं, क्या अकाली दल इस बार आनंदपुर साहिब से एक मजबूत, स्वतंत्र और स्थानीय रूप से लोकप्रिय उम्मीदवार उतारेगा या फिर पहले की तरह कमजोर उम्मीदवारों और गठबंधन पर निर्भरता का सिलसिला दोहराएगा?
Raj Kumar Gupta Bittu fought the 2022 Sujanpur Assembly Elections on an Akali Dal ticket, but could manage only 7,999 votes (6.18%). Now he is with the BJP, in a constituency that has often swung between Congress and BJP.
