In your opinion, is the college-to-university ratio adequate, or has it become a business trend to open universities so rapidly?
Love him or dislike him, Rana Gurjeet Singh is not the kind of politician who believes in keeping a low profile. Whether it is his royal wardrobe, trademark moustache, luxury lifestyle, or his habit of speaking with zero political sugarcoating, the Congress leader has created an image that feels part feudal strongman, part modern power player. For supporters, that larger-than-life swagger reflects confidence and authority. For critics, it represents the same VIP culture and money-driven politics many voters claim to be tired of. In Punjab’s drama-filled political landscape, what do you think keeps Rana Gurjeet Singh constantly in the spotlight ?
आप राणा गुरजीत सिंह को पसंद करें या नापसंद, वे ऐसे राजनेता नहीं हैं जो गुमनाम रहना पसंद करते हों। चाहे उनका शाही पहनावा हो, उनकी खास मूंछें हों, उनकी आलीशान जीवनशैली हो या फिर बिना लाग-लपेट के बोलने की आदत, कांग्रेस नेता ने एक ऐसी छवि बनाई है जो कुछ हद तक सामंती दबंग और कुछ हद तक आधुनिक सत्ताधारी की झलक देती है। समर्थकों के लिए, उनका यह दबंग अंदाज आत्मविश्वास और अधिकार का प्रतीक है। आलोचकों के लिए, यह उसी वी.आई.पी. संस्कृति और धन-प्रेरित राजनीति का प्रतिनिधित्व करता है जिससे कई मतदाता ऊब चुके हैं। पंजाब के राजनीतिक परिदृश्य में, आपको क्या लगता है कि राणा गुरजीत सिंह को लगातार सुर्खियों में क्या रखता है ?
Punjab Congress is now openly borrowing the BJP’s famous “Panna Pramukh” style booth strategy by appointing nearly 25,000 booth sevaks and over 1.25 Lakh assistant booth workers ahead of the 2027 elections. From household visits to voter-level mobilisation and centralised monitoring by the high command, the party appears to be shifting from old-style politics to a far more aggressive election machinery model. But as Congress increasingly adopts organisational methods once criticised as BJP-style politics, is the party quietly admitting that ideology alone is no longer enough to win modern elections in Punjab ?
