Did you know, Women in India with equal qualifications are still earning 23% less than men— Maybe the economy thinks 'equal pay' is a luxury only for developed countries. India’s still waiting for its turn!
The possible BJP–Shiromani Akali Dal alliance is facing fresh uncertainty over Balwant Singh Rajoana’s mercy petition. The Shiromani Akali Dal is demanding that his death sentence be commuted, while the BJP-led Centre has opposed the plea in the Supreme Court. With both parties preparing for the 2027 Punjab elections, the issue puts their political differences back in the spotlight. After years of alliance and a bitter split over the farm laws, can these former allies put their differences aside or will the Rajoana issue become a major roadblock to a reunion ?
बलवंत सिंह राजोआना की दया याचिका को लेकर भाजपा और शिरोमणि अकाली दल के संभावित गठबंधन पर फिर अनिश्चितता छा गई है। शिरोमणि अकाली दल उनकी मौत की सज़ा को उम्रकैद में बदलने की माँग कर रहा है, जबकि भाजपा के नेतृत्व वाली केंद्र सरकार ने सुप्रीम कोर्ट में इस याचिका का विरोध किया है। 2027 के पंजाब विधानसभा चुनावों की तैयारी के बीच यह मुद्दा दोनों दलों के मतभेदों को फिर सामने ले आया है। कृषि कानूनों को लेकर गठबंधन टूटने के बाद क्या दोनों पुराने साथी अपने मतभेद भुलाकर फिर साथ आ पाएँगे या राजोआना का मुद्दा उनकी वापसी में बड़ी रुकावट बनेगा ?
Jailed MP Amritpal Singh may contest the 2027 Punjab Assembly elections against Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann and Shiromani Akali Dal president Sukhbir Singh Badal from two separate constituencies. His party, Akali Dal (Waris Punjab De), is weighing its options but no final decision has been announced. If this plan moves ahead, could direct contests with two major political leaders shake up Punjab’s electoral battle, or will the strategy carry more risks than rewards ? What could this move mean for Punjab politics ?
