There are more than 19,500 cooperatives in Punjab, out of which over 3,900 are related to agriculture. An important thing to consider is that if the government wants to bring any new revolution, the best means for it are these in rural areas.

Punjab has seen this script before. Ahead of the 2022 Assembly elections, the Congress was consumed by infighting, leadership changes and public power struggles, creating what many believed was the perfect opportunity for the Shiromani Akali Dal to stage a comeback. Yet, despite the Congress's turmoil, the Akali Dal suffered one of the worst defeats in its history. Today, as the Congress once again finds itself divided by an internal leadership battle between Amarinder Singh Raja Warring and Charanjit Singh Channi, has Sukhbir Singh Badal finally learned from the past and positioned the Akali Dal to reclaim its place as Punjab's principal opposition, or will the party once again fail to convert its rivals' weaknesses into its own political revival ?
पंजाब यह कहानी पहले भी देख चुका है। 2022 विधानसभा चुनावों से पहले कांग्रेस अंदरूनी कलह, नेतृत्व परिवर्तन और खुली गुटबाज़ी में उलझी हुई थी। उस समय माना जा रहा था कि यह शिरोमणि अकाली दल की वापसी का सबसे बड़ा मौका होगा। लेकिन कांग्रेस की कमजोरी के बावजूद अकाली दल अपने इतिहास के सबसे खराब चुनावी प्रदर्शन में से एक से नहीं बच सका। अब जब कांग्रेस एक बार फिर अमरिंदर सिंह राजा वड़िंग और चरणजीत सिंह चन्नी के बीच नेतृत्व संघर्ष से जूझ रही है, क्या सुखबीर सिंह बादल ने पिछली गलतियों से सबक लेकर अकाली दल को पंजाब की मुख्य विपक्षी पार्टी बनाने की तैयारी कर ली है, या फिर पार्टी एक बार फिर अपने विरोधियों की कमजोरी का राजनीतिक लाभ उठाने में नाकाम रहेगी ?
Every time the Shiromani Akali Dal witnesses a split, the breakaway faction claims to be the "real" guardian of Panthic values while promising to restore the party's lost glory. Now, with SAD (Punar Surjit) led by Giani Harpreet Singh and Bibi Jagir Kaur, launching its Chandigarh unit and preparing to contest elections, Punjab's voters are once again being presented with another version of the "original" Akali Dal. But after decades of repeated splits, new banners and familiar faces, are these breakaway factions truly rebuilding Akali politics, or simply dividing the same political space into smaller pieces ? If every faction claims to represent the true Akali legacy, is the Panthic movement becoming stronger through reform, or weaker through endless fragmentation ?
