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!
As Congress observers meet leaders like Sukhjinder Singh Randhawa, Gurjeet Singh Aujla, Vijay Inder Singla, Rajinder Kaur Bhattal and other senior figures to chart the party's course for 2027, an interesting question emerges: Is Punjab Congress quietly building a stronger second line of leadership, or is it still too dependent on a handful of familiar faces ? With several experienced leaders seeking a larger role in the party's revival, can Congress turn its depth into an advantage, or will competing expectations once again complicate its path back to power ?
कांग्रेस के पर्यवेक्षक जब सुखजिंदर सिंह रंधावा, गुरजीत सिंह औजला, विजय इंदर सिंगला, राजिंदर कौर भट्ठल और अन्य वरिष्ठ नेताओं से 2027 की रणनीति पर चर्चा कर रहे हैं, तो एक दिलचस्प सवाल उभरता है: क्या पंजाब कांग्रेस चुपचाप नेतृत्व की दूसरी पंक्ति को मजबूत कर रही है, या फिर वह अब भी कुछ पुराने और स्थापित चेहरों पर ही अत्यधिक निर्भर है ? कई अनुभवी नेता पार्टी के पुनरुत्थान में बड़ी भूमिका चाहते हैं। ऐसे में क्या कांग्रेस अपनी नेतृत्व क्षमता को ताकत में बदल पाएगी, या फिर बढ़ती अपेक्षाएं उसकी वापसी की राह को फिर जटिल बना देंगी ?
As Rahul Gandhi once again turns to trusted loyalists to assess the Punjab Congress ahead of 2027, an uncomfortable question is being asked within the party. If Punjab's politics is so unique and complex, why is the job being handed to leaders who either have limited understanding of the state or have struggled electorally themselves ? Even Punjab in-charge Bhupesh Baghel, despite multiple visits and reviews, has not been able to significantly improve the party's position or ease its factional infighting. As another assessment exercise begins, is Congress searching for solutions, or simply repeating a familiar formula ?
