With the Supreme Court's recent directive for mandatory accessibility rules, can India overcome these barriers and ensure true inclusion for persons with disabilities?
Vijay Inder Singla has seen both highs and setbacks in Punjab politics, winning as MP from Sangrur in 2009, later becoming MLA in 2017 and minister, but also facing major defeats in 2014 and 2022. With long experience, a known name, and roots in Sangrur politics, his future is again becoming a talking point as 2027 gets closer. The big question is whether Vijay Inder Singla can script a strong comeback in Punjab, or whether changing voter mood has made the road tougher for old Congress faces. Can experience and recognition still turn into victory again ?
विजय इंदर सिंगला ने पंजाब राजनीति में ऊंचाइयाँ भी देखी हैं और झटके भी। 2009 में संगरूर से सांसद बने, फिर 2017 में विधायक और मंत्री बने, लेकिन 2014 और 2022 में बड़ी हार का सामना भी किया। लंबे अनुभव, पहचाने हुए नाम और संगरूर की जड़ों के साथ 2027 नज़दीक आते ही उनका भविष्य फिर चर्चा में है। बड़ा सवाल यह है कि क्या विजय इंदर सिंगला पंजाब में मजबूत वापसी कर पाएंगे, या बदलते मतदाता मूड ने पुराने कांग्रेस चेहरों के लिए रास्ता कठिन कर दिया है ? क्या अनुभव और पहचान फिर जीत में बदल सकते हैं ?
Dr. Amar Singh entered Punjab politics with a different profile than many traditional leaders, moving from medicine and bureaucracy into electoral politics before becoming Member of Parliament from Fatehgarh Sahib. His professional background gives him an image of administration, discipline, and policy understanding rather than old-style mass politics. As Punjab moves toward 2027, the key question is whether Dr. Amar Singh will remain focused on strengthening his role in national politics, or whether his growing stature could also make him influential in shaping Congress strategy in the region. Can technocratic credibility and parliamentary presence turn into bigger political weight on the ground, or does Punjab politics still reward only traditional grassroots styles ?
