If 'purchasing power' is now defined by wishful thinking and empty pockets?
Review - DEKHO
Rural per capita expenditure is at Rs 4,122 and urban at Rs 6,996 – is this the Government’s idea of rural prosperity, or just a number that makes you question?
If 'purchasing power' is now defined by wishful thinking and empty pockets?
Punjab BJP Chief Kewal Singh Dhillon has announced that Captain Amarinder Singh will be actively campaigning for the party in the 2027 Assembly elections. The declaration has sparked a pointed question for a party that speaks of growth, expansion and a new political future in Punjab, why does one of its biggest campaign cards still happen to be a leader whose political stature was built long before he joined the BJP ? Is Captain Amarinder Singh still the face the party trusts most when it needs credibility with Punjab's voters, or does his continued centrality expose a leadership gap that the BJP has yet to fill on its own ?
पंजाब भाजपा अध्यक्ष केवल सिंह ढिल्लों ने घोषणा की है कि कैप्टन अमरिंदर सिंह 2027 विधानसभा चुनाव में पार्टी के लिए सक्रिय प्रचार करेंगे। इस घोषणा ने एक तीखा सवाल खड़ा कर दिया है जो पार्टी पंजाब में विस्तार, नई राजनीति और नए नेतृत्व की बात कर रही है, उसकी सबसे बड़ी चुनावी उम्मीदों में अब भी ऐसा नेता क्यों शामिल है जिसकी राजनीतिक पहचान भाजपा में आने से बहुत पहले बन चुकी थी ? क्या कैप्टन अमरिंदर सिंह आज भी वह चेहरा हैं जिस पर भाजपा पंजाब के मतदाताओं के बीच भरोसा और स्वीकार्यता बनाने के लिए सबसे ज्यादा निर्भर करती है, या फिर उनकी लगातार अहम भूमिका यह दिखाती है कि पार्टी अभी तक पंजाब में अपना कोई बड़ा जनाधार वाला नेता तैयार नहीं कर पाई है ?
Manoranjan Kalia was once among the most prominent faces of Punjab BJP, but in recent years the spotlight has increasingly shifted toward newer entrants, high-profile defectors and emerging power centres within the party. Yet despite being comparatively sidelined in the current political discourse, Kalia remains one of the BJP's most experienced leaders and a survivor of multiple political eras. This raises an interesting question, has Punjab BJP become so focused on its new faces that it risks overlooking one of its most seasoned veterans ? Or is Kalia proving that political relevance is not always measured by headlines and organisational titles, but by the ability to remain influential even when the spotlight moves elsewhere ?
