The Government of India has admitted in Parliament that the demand for DAP fertilizer in Punjab during the Rabi season was around 4 lakh Metric Tons. However, only 3.6 lakh Metric Tons of DAP were supplied. This is a serious concern because the area under Wheat cultivation in Punjab was record-breaking this time.

Jagbir Singh Brar has moved through almost every major political party in Punjab, starting from SAD, then joining PPP, then shifting to Congress, later returning to SAD, then switching to AAP, and finally landing in the BJP, making it his fifth party in 14 years. He first won Jalandhar Cantt in 2007 on SAD ticket, and later contested Nakodar as the INC candidate in 2017, but lost. In 2022, he fought from Jalandhar Cantt on SAD ticket again, but lost again. In 2024, he joined BJP that added another twist to political journey. With the 2027 election coming closer, will the BJP actually trust Jagbir Singh Brar as its face from Nakodar, or will his long list of party switches make the party think twice ?
जगबीर सिंह बराड़ पंजाब की लगभग हर बड़ी राजनीतिक पार्टी से गुजर चुके हैं—शिरोमणि अकाली दल से शुरुआत, फिर PPP, उसके बाद कांग्रेस, फिर दोबारा SAD, फिर AAP और अब भाजपा में शामिल होकर उन्होंने 14 साल में अपनी पाँचवीं पार्टी बदल ली। उन्होंने 2007 में SAD टिकट पर जालंधर कैंट सीट जीती थी। बाद में उन्होंने 2017 में नकोदर से कांग्रेस उम्मीदवार के रूप में चुनाव लड़ा लेकिन हार गए। 2022 में उन्होंने फिर से SAD टिकट पर जालंधर कैंट से चुनाव लड़ा पर इस बार भी हार मिली। 2024 में उनके भाजपा में शामिल होने से उनके राजनीतिक सफर में एक और मोड़ आ गया। अब जब 2027 का चुनाव करीब आ रहा है, सवाल उठता है कि क्या भाजपा वास्तव में जगबीर सिंह बराड़ को नकोदर से अपना चेहरा बनाएगी या उनकी लगातार पार्टी बदलने की आदत पार्टी को सोचने पर मजबूर कर देगी ?
After contesting the 2017 elections as an independent, Jagdish Kumar Jagga later joined Captain Amarinder Singh’s Punjab Lok Congress before joining the BJP ahead of the 2022 elections. The BJP even sidelined its 2017 candidate, Harjit Singh Grewal, to give Jagga the Rajpura ticket, where he finished as runner-up. How will this background shape Jagga’s chances in the 2027 elections ?
