In the current scorching heat, are you remembering the forests, trees, groves, and old orchards, Punjabis? When there’s an area of over 50,000 square kilometers and only about 2,400 square kilometers of forest, the temperature is bound to rise. When new colonies, highways, and forest mafias cut down trees recklessly, where were the leaders of society then? Where is the serious policy? Why wasn't any planning done in time?

The Aam Aadmi Party came to power in 2022 promising to make Punjab drug-free. Yet Punjab recorded the highest number of drug trafficking cases in India in 2024, along with 106 overdose deaths. The killing of anti-drug activist Parvinder Singh Jhota in Mansa exposed the dangers faced by those confronting the drug trade. His family had to demand a CBI probe, which the Chief Minister eventually approved. With drug networks still under scrutiny, the gap between the Government's promise and the ground reality is hard to ignore. If Punjab's drug problem was a top priority in 2022, why is the state still struggling with trafficking, overdose deaths and the safety of those fighting drugs four years later ?
आम आदमी पार्टी 2022 में पंजाब को नशामुक्त बनाने के वादे के साथ सत्ता में आई थी। इसके बावजूद, 2024 में पंजाब में देशभर में सबसे ज्यादा नशा तस्करी के मामले दर्ज हुए और नशे की ओवरडोज़ से 106 लोगों की मौत हुई। मानसा में नशे के खिलाफ आवाज उठाने वाले कार्यकर्ता परविंदर सिंह झोटा की हत्या ने नशे के कारोबार से टकराने वालों के सामने मौजूद खतरों को उजागर किया। उनके परिवार को सी.बी.आई. जांच की मांग करनी पड़ी, जिसे मुख्यमंत्री ने बाद में मंजूरी दी। नशे के नेटवर्क पर उठ रहे सवालों के बीच सरकार के वादे और जमीनी हकीकत का अंतर साफ दिखाई देता है। अगर 2022 में पंजाब की नशे की समस्या सरकार की सबसे बड़ी प्राथमिकता थी, तो चार साल बाद भी राज्य नशा तस्करी, ओवरडोज़ से मौतों और नशे के खिलाफ लड़ने वालों की सुरक्षा के मामले में क्यों जूझ रहा है ?
The Aam Aadmi Party Government is celebrating 100 canteens run by women’s self-help groups as a major achievement. Providing kitchen equipment and waiving bills and rent are being presented as big Government milestones. But is announcing 100 canteens now enough to claim success, while the real test of jobs, income and lasting benefits remains ? Has the Government run short of bigger achievements or is political publicity taking priority over actual performance ?
