According to the data released for the year 2023-2024, India has exported goods worth 16 billion U.S. dollars to China and imported goods worth 101 billion U.S. dollars, resulting in a trade deficit of 85 billion U.S. dollars with China. At the same time, discussions regarding Indo-China relations are taking place with great intensity.
Paramjit Singh Dhillon contested Samrala in 2022 on a Shiromani Akali Dal ticket and is now the halka in-charge of the constituency, returning to a key local role as the party tries to rebuild ahead of 2027. Despite finishing second in the last election, the gap with the winner showed how much work still remains in Samrala. In Punjab politics, being halka in-charge can help a leader reconnect with workers, stay visible, and rebuild local momentum, but it does not guarantee votes. As 2027 approaches, the real question is whether Dhillon can use this renewed responsibility to turn Akali Dal back into a serious challenger in Samrala, or whether the constituency has moved beyond SAD’s old hold. Is he preparing a comeback, or managing a difficult revival mission ?
परमजीत सिंह ढिल्लों ने 2022 में समराला से शिरोमणि अकाली दल के टिकट पर चुनाव लड़ा था और अब वह क्षेत्र के हलका इंचार्ज हैं, जहां पार्टी 2027 से पहले अपनी पकड़ फिर मजबूत करने की कोशिश कर रही है। पिछली बार दूसरे स्थान पर रहने के बावजूद विजेता से अंतर ने दिखा दिया कि समराला में अभी काफी मेहनत बाकी है। पंजाब की राजनीति में हलका इंचार्ज होना किसी नेता को कार्यकर्ताओं से दोबारा जोड़ने, सक्रिय बने रहने और स्थानीय माहौल बनाने में मदद करता है, लेकिन इससे जीत की गारंटी नहीं मिलती। 2027 नज़दीक आते हुए असली सवाल यह है कि क्या ढिल्लों इस नई जिम्मेदारी को अकाली दल की वापसी में बदल पाएंगे, या समराला अब पार्टी की पुरानी पकड़ से आगे निकल चुका है। क्या वह वापसी की तैयारी कर रहे हैं, या मुश्किल पुनर्जीवन मिशन संभाल रहे हैं ?
Ravinder Singh Khera is steadily gaining visibility in Kharar as Shiromani Akali Dal’s local face, working on constituency issues and trying to reconnect the party with younger as well as traditional voters. In a seat where Akali Dal needs both revival and relevance, his growing profile has sparked fresh speculation. As 2027 approaches, is Khera genuinely emerging as Shiromani Akali Dal’s serious comeback face in Kharar, or is he simply being used to keep the party visible in a difficult constituency until a bigger name arrives ? Can grassroots activity turn into real votes, or will visibility remain limited to headlines and statements ?
