Initial trends revive speculation in Punjab’s political circles about where Captain Amarinder goes from here, & whether this is where the curtains fall on his career as a politician.
Sidhu said during his 17 years of political career he never lived for any post but always wanted Punjab's betterment and improvement in lives of its people.
Punjab Lok Congress’ list of 22 candidates includes 8 Jat Sikhs, 4 Dalit Sikhs, 3 OBCs , and 5 Hindus. Ajit Pal Singh will fight the 20 Feb elections from Nakodar seat in Jalandhar.
After officially announcing the alliance, Singh exuded confidence that they 'will 101% win the elections' and said winnability will be the main criterion in finalising seats.
Punjab Deputy CM Randhawa said state DGP will probe Aroosa Alam’s 'possible connections to the ISI'. Aroosa, a Pakistani journalist, is a close friend of former Punjab CM Captain Amarinder Singh.
In a conversation at ThePrint’s 'Off The Cuff'', Capt. Amarinder Singh says 'I have done everything in my power for 52 years for my country, I am not ready to go to pasture'.
Captain Amarinder Singh has said he is not joining BJP. His game plan is crucial not just for coming 2022 Punjab assembly elections, but also the state's future political architecture.
There are instances — both from national and state elections — of economic underperformers being returned to power, and also of parties being thrown out despite good performance.
CM Channi has 2 key tasks — ending illegal mining & reducing power charges for consumers. His deputy, Randhawa, was vocal against Amarinder for failure on sacrilege cases. Now he is in charge of home.
The BJP and RSS are umbilically tied through a mutually beneficial relationship. Bhagwat’s comments are merely a ploy to obtain more power from a weakened Modi.
The central bank kept the key repo rate unchanged for an eighth straight policy meeting earlier this month saying robust economic growth will give it space to focus on bringing down inflation towards its medium-term target.
Occasional lovers’ tiffs have marked history of RSS-BJP relations. To think that Nagpur will bring about any change in leadership is a misreading of both its intent and its power.
