With the Supreme Court's recent directive for mandatory accessibility rules, can India overcome these barriers and ensure true inclusion for persons with disabilities?
Sukhbir Singh Badal has launched a sharp attack on the Aam Aadmi Party government, alleging that handing out ₹1,000 per month to women while Punjab’s debt keeps climbing is nothing more than an attempt to “buy votes” with borrowed money. The Shiromani Akali Dal chief argued that Punjab cannot be run on short-term cash handouts and headline announcements while deeper issues like jobs, industry and farmers’ distress remain unresolved.
शिरोमणि अकाली दल के प्रमुख सुखबीर सिंह बादल ने आम आदमी पार्टी सरकार पर तीखा हमला करते हुए आरोप लगाया है कि पंजाब का कर्ज लगातार बढ़ते हुए भी महिलाओं को ₹1,000 प्रतिमाह देना दरअसल उधार के पैसे से “वोट खरीदने” की कोशिश है। उनका कहना है कि केवल अल्पकालिक नकद योजनाओं और बड़े-बड़े ऐलानों से पंजाब नहीं चल सकता, जबकि रोजगार, उद्योग और किसानों की परेशानियाँ अभी भी गंभीर बनी हुई हैं।
The massive turnout at the “Save Punjab” rally in Bhucho, the maternal grandparents’ village of Sukhbir Singh Badal, has been projected by the Shiromani Akali Dal as a powerful signal that the party’s grassroots base remains alive and energised.
