With the 2027 Punjab elections approaching, Sachin Pilot has been brought in at a crucial moment for a Congress unit still dealing with factional tensions. The party’s 2022 experience showed how internal leadership battles can overshadow the real election fight.

Can he use that experience to keep Punjab Congress united, manage competing ambitions and ensure the party does not repeat its old mistakes ?
