Manpreet Singh Ayali has carved out a strong identity in Punjab politics, winning from Dakha multiple times and emerging as one of the few successful faces of Shiromani Akali Dal in the 2022 elections when the party’s overall performance was weak. From serving as Zila Parishad Chairman to becoming a three-time MLA, his journey reflects both grassroots connect and political resilience, especially after losing in 2017 and making a comeback in the 2019 by-election following the resignation of HS Phoolka. At the same time, his differences with party chief Sukhbir Singh Badal and his decision to stay away from party activities have highlighted a clear distance from the leadership. Is Manpreet Singh Ayali a strong independent political force on his own, or does his distance from party structure limit his future growth despite his ground strength ?
मनप्रीत सिंह अयाली ने पंजाब की राजनीति में अपनी एक मजबूत पहचान बनाई है, दाखा से कई बार जीत दर्ज करते हुए वे 2022 चुनावों में शिरोमणि अकाली दल के उन कुछ नेताओं में शामिल रहे जिन्होंने कमजोर प्रदर्शन के बावजूद अपनी सीट बचाई। जिला परिषद चेयरमैन से लेकर तीन बार विधायक बनने तक, उनकी यात्रा जमीनी पकड़ और राजनीतिक मजबूती को दर्शाती है, खासकर 2017 की हार के बाद 2019 उपचुनाव में एच.एस. फूलका के इस्तीफे के बाद वापसी करना। वहीं, पार्टी प्रमुख सुखबीर सिंह बादल से उनके मतभेद और पार्टी गतिविधियों से दूरी ने नेतृत्व से उनके अलगाव को साफ किया है। क्या मनप्रीत सिंह अयाली अपने दम पर एक मजबूत स्वतंत्र राजनीतिक ताकत हैं, या पार्टी ढांचे से दूरी उनके भविष्य के विस्तार को सीमित कर रही है ?
Parambans Singh Bunty Romana has been a vocal and visible face of Shiromani Akali Dal, often known for his sharp statements and active presence in political debates. He was also fielded as the party’s candidate from Faridkot in both the 2017 and 2022 Punjab Assembly elections. However, despite strong visibility, he faced defeat in both elections, raising questions about his ground strength and electoral appeal. After two consecutive losses from Faridkot, is Bunty Romana’s strong public presence translating into real political support, or does it remain limited beyond visibility ?
