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!
Adesh Partap Singh Kairon, a four-time MLA from Patti (1997, 2002, 2007, 2012) who still secured 46,324 votes even in SAD’s 2022 downturn, now stands with the rebel Akali Dal faction after his suspension. The real question for 2027 becomes bigger than just Kairon’s own path: can the Shiromani Akali Dal realistically hope to reclaim Patti without reconciling with him? And is Sukhbir Badal now at a point where political survival demands repairing ties rather than deepening old fractures?
आदेश प्रताप सिंह कैरों, जो पट्टी से चार बार विधायक रह चुके हैं (1997, 2002, 2007, 2012) और शिरोमणि अकाली दल की 2022 की गिरावट के बावजूद 46,324 वोट हासिल करने में सफल रहे, अब निलंबन के बाद बाग़ी अकाली दल के साथ खड़े हैं। 2027 के लिए असली सवाल सिर्फ़ आदेश प्रताप सिंह कैरों के भविष्य का नहीं, बल्कि यह है कि क्या शिरोमणि अकाली दल बिना उनसे समझौता किए पट्टी को दोबारा जीतने की उम्मीद कर सकता है और क्या सुखबीर बादल अब ऐसे मोड़ पर हैं जहाँ राजनीतिक अस्तित्व के लिए रिश्ते जोड़ना ज़्यादा ज़रूरी है बजाय पुरानी दरारों को और गहरा करने के?
Narinder Kumar Sharma, senior leader of Shiromani Akali Dal (SAD), had been the MLA from Dera Bassi in 2012 and 2017, building a strong local base. But in 2022, he suffered a surprising defeat as AAP’s Kuljit Singh Randhawa surged ahead, reflecting not just his personal loss but the wider downfall of SAD in Punjab. As 2027 approaches, the question is, can Sharma and Akali Dal reclaim lost ground in Dera Bassi, or has the political tide turned permanently?
