The flood of off-season vegetables and fruits in the market is a direct and clear indication that these vegetables are being grown using excessive amounts of growth regulators, pesticides, and fungicides, which are very harmful to health.

Neither the enforcement agencies are paying attention to this, nor are buyers thinking about from where these off-season crops are coming?
The BJP has never won more than 19 seats in a Punjab Assembly election. Its best performance came in 2007, when it contested as an ally of the Shiromani Akali Dal. Now, the party is seeking to build an independent political base across Malwa, Majha and Doaba. With AAP and Congress facing their own challenges, the BJP sees an opportunity to expand its presence. But moving beyond its traditional urban strongholds will require more than electoral gains in a few regions. Can the BJP cross its 19-seat ceiling and emerge as a serious political force in Punjab or will its ambitions remain limited by weak grassroots support ?
भाजपा ने पंजाब विधानसभा चुनाव में अब तक कभी 19 से अधिक सीटें नहीं जीती हैं। उसका अब तक का सर्वश्रेष्ठ प्रदर्शन 2007 में रहा था, जब उसने शिरोमणि अकाली दल के साथ गठबंधन में चुनाव लड़ा था। अब पार्टी मालवा, माझा और दोआबा में अपना स्वतंत्र राजनीतिक आधार बनाने की कोशिश कर रही है। आम आदमी पार्टी और कांग्रेस के सामने अपनी चुनौतियों के बीच भाजपा को अपनी पकड़ बढ़ाने का अवसर दिखाई दे रहा है। लेकिन अपने पारंपरिक शहरी गढ़ों से बाहर निकलने के लिए कुछ क्षेत्रों में चुनावी बढ़त हासिल करना ही काफी नहीं होगा। क्या भाजपा 19 सीटों का अपना पुराना रिकॉर्ड तोड़कर पंजाब में एक मजबूत राजनीतिक ताकत बन पाएगी या कमजोर जमीनी पकड़ के कारण उसकी महत्वाकांक्षाएं सीमित रह जाएंगी ?
Haryana Chief Minister Nayab Singh Saini addressed a youth rally in Balachaur, pitching BJP as an alternative to the Aam Aadmi Party and Congress ahead of the 2027 Punjab elections. He spoke about drugs, unemployment, migration and rural development. But with a major political pitch being made by a leader from Haryana, questions arise about the visibility of Punjab BJP's own senior leadership. If BJP is preparing to form the next Government in Punjab, why are leaders from Haryana taking the lead in its campaign ? Where are Punjab BJP's senior leaders, and what is their own vision for the state ?
