Back in 2019, Jagdeep Kamboj Goldy finished a humiliating 4th in the Jalalabad bypoll with just 5,836 votes, while Congress’s Raminder Singh Awla won comfortably and SAD’s Raj Singh Dibbipura came second. Fast forward to 2022, and the same Goldy completely turned the tables, he not only won but trounced SAD president Sukhbir Singh Badal by 30,930 votes, polling 91,455 votes to Sukhbir’s 60,525. AAP itself rode a historic wave, winning 92 of 117 seats in Punjab. Now, as 2027 approaches, the big question is, can Goldy pull off another political miracle, or was 2022 just a one-time storm?
