Are such policymakers and service providers the only available advisors to the Government of India?
As the Punjab Congress battles another open revolt over its leadership, the BJP has declared that its doors are open for any disgruntled Congress leader willing to switch sides. Over the years, Punjab Congress has repeatedly watched several prominent leaders walk away after internal disagreements, only to strengthen rival parties. This raises an uncomfortable question: Has the Congress become a factory for producing political turncoats by repeatedly disappointing its own leaders ? If the party keeps creating rebels faster than it creates a roadmap for revival, who is really benefiting from its internal politics ?
पंजाब कांग्रेस एक बार फिर खुले नेतृत्व संकट और गुटबाज़ी से जूझ रही है, वहीं भाजपा ने साफ़ कर दिया है कि उसके दरवाज़े हर असंतुष्ट कांग्रेसी नेता के लिए खुले हैं। वर्षों से पंजाब कांग्रेस अपने ही कई बड़े नेताओं को अंदरूनी नाराज़गी के कारण खोती रही है, जिनमें से कई बाद में विरोधी दलों की ताकत बन गए। ऐसे में एक असहज सवाल उठता है: क्या कांग्रेस अपने ही नेताओं को बार-बार निराश करके राजनीतिक दल-बदलुओं की सबसे बड़ी फैक्ट्री बनती जा रही है ? अगर पार्टी पुनरुत्थान की रणनीति बनाने से ज़्यादा बागियों को पैदा करने में व्यस्त रहेगी, तो आखिर इसका सबसे बड़ा राजनीतिक फायदा किसे मिलेगा ?
With Prime Minister Narendra Modi expected to visit Punjab once again and Union Minister Ravneet Singh Bittu promising major infrastructure projects, investments and employment initiatives, the BJP appears to be leveraging the full weight of the Central Government to strengthen its political footprint in the state. Yet this raises a larger democratic question: Does access to greater governmental resources provide the BJP with a natural political advantage over regional parties, or should electoral success still depend solely on the trust earned from Punjab's people ? Can development announced from Delhi substitute for a political connection built in Punjab ?
