Rahul Gandhi walked 1,300 km across Bihar, changed dialects, posed with ‘machhli, gamcha and makhana’, yet voters still treated Congress like background noise. After three grand yatras and a full rebranding exercise, if the party still can’t cross even basic relevance in the Hindi heartland, the real question is: Is Rahul Gandhi campaigning for votes, or campaigning for sympathy while Congress keeps collapsing behind him?

A) Sympathy tours won’t save a sinking Congress.
B) Rahul tries, Congress doesn’t, and that’s the gap.
With both Punjab Congress Chief Raja Warring and SAD President Sukhbir Singh Badal accusing the AAP Government of intimidating opposition candidates, abusing police machinery, blocking nominations, and creating an atmosphere of fear across districts, a deeper question now hangs over Punjab politics.

पंजाब कांग्रेस प्रदेश अध्यक्ष राजा वड़िंग और शिरोमणि अकाली दल के अध्यक्ष सुखबीर सिंह बादल दोनों ही AAP सरकार पर विपक्षी उम्मीदवारों को डराने, पुलिस मशीनरी का दुरुपयोग करने, नामांकन रोकने और जिलों में भय का माहौल बनाने के आरोप लगा रहे हैं। ऐसे में पंजाब की राजनीति में एक गहरा सवाल उठता है: क्या AAP अपनी ही ज़मीन को लेकर इतनी असुरक्षित हो गई है कि चुनाव की तैयारी करने के बजाय अब वह विपक्ष को नामांकन डेस्क तक पहुँचने से रोकने के तरीक़े ढूंढ रही है ?
While the Industry and Power Minister, Sanjeev Arora is flying across Japan talking about investments, Punjab’s entire power sector is burning with anger back home, 1,000+ engineers on the streets, major power projects frozen, WhatsApp groups abandoned, and employees openly warning that political interference has crossed all limits. With the state struggling to maintain zero power outage, the Ropar supercritical project stuck, and the minister absent during the biggest revolt the sector has seen in years, the real question is: is Sanjeev Arora running Punjab’s power department or simply running away from the problems ?
