Makhan Singh Lalka has seen a turbulent political journey in Nabha. After serving Shiromani Akali Dal for years as constituency incharge, he quit the party over being denied tickets in 2012 and 2017 despite maintaining a strong local presence. He later rejoined the Shiromani Akali Dal in 2023, and recent public trust shown by Sukhbir Singh Badal in Nabha has again pushed him into focus.
मक्खन सिंह लालका ने नाभा की राजनीति में कई उतार चढ़ाव देखे हैं। वर्षों तक शिरोमणि अकाली दल के हलका इंचार्ज रहने के बाद, 2012 और 2017 में टिकट न मिलने से नाराज़ होकर उन्होंने पार्टी छोड़ दी, जबकि क्षेत्र में उनकी मजबूत पकड़ बनी रही। बाद में वह 2023 में फिर शिरोमणि अकाली दल में लौट आए, और नाभा की हालिया रैली में सुखबीर सिंह बादल द्वारा उन पर जताए गए भरोसे ने उन्हें फिर चर्चा में ला दिया है।
Kulwant Singh Keetu carries a recognised political legacy in Barnala as the son of former two-time MLA Malkit Singh Keetu, and has remained an active face in local politics for years. He was the Shiromani Akali Dal candidate from Barnala in 2022, but could not win the seat. Even after that setback, his continued political activity has kept him in discussion. As 2027 approaches, the key question is: will Sukhbir Singh Badal and Shiromani Akali Dal place their trust in Kulwant Singh Keetu once again for Barnala, or will the party now look for a fresh face to change its fortunes ? Is Barnala still his strongest opportunity, or is Shiromani Akali Dal preparing a new strategy this time ?
