Is this the price of development? Are bulldozers targeting the right issues?

Imagine if the government used the same bulldozers they sent to flatten people’s homes to clear out the mountain of “on-paper” schemes that never seem to make it to reality.
Sucha Singh Chhotepur has seen it all, from sarpanch in 1975 to Minister in the 1985, contesting as an independent, joining Congress, becoming AAP’s Punjab convener, launching his own Apna Punjab Party, and then contesting from Shiromani Akali Dal in Batala in 2022, only to lose to Amansher Singh of AAP. Now aligned with the Akali Dal faction led by Giani Harpreet Singh, the real question is: Can Sucha Singh Chhotepur leverage decades of political experience to make a comeback, or will voters finally punish the veteran for being a political turncoat?
सुच्चा सिंह छोटेपुर ने सब कुछ देखा है, 1975 में सरपंच से लेकर 1985 में मंत्री तक, स्वतंत्र उम्मीदवार के रूप में चुनाव लड़ना, कांग्रेस में शामिल होना, आम आदमी पार्टी के पंजाब संयोजक बनना, अपनी खुद की "अपना पंजाब पार्टी" शुरू करना, और फिर 2022 में बटाला से शिरोमणि अकाली दल के उम्मीदवार के रूप में चुनाव लड़ना, लेकिन अमनशेर सिंह शैरी कलसी (AAP) से हार जाना। अब वह ज्ञानी हरप्रीत सिंह के नेतृत्व वाले अकाली दल के साथ हैं। असली सवाल यह है: क्या सुच्चा सिंह छोटेपुर अपने दशकों के राजनीतिक अनुभव का लाभ उठाकर वापसी कर पाएंगे, या मतदाता आखिरकार उन्हें राजनीतिक दलबदलू होने के लिए सजा देंगे?
After winning the Verka Assembly seat in 2007 and later serving as Commissioner of the Right to Service Commission in 2012, Dr. Dalbir Singh Verka tried to revive his political career by contesting the 2022 elections from Amritsar West on a Shiromani Akali Dal ticket, but faced a heavy defeat. Soon after, he shifted to the Aam Aadmi Party. With his exit, SAD now faces a big question- Who will the Shiromani Akali Dal field from Amritsar West in 2027?
