Garhshankar, February 16 - In the coming time, the political mockery of Punjab regarding the Block Samiti elections will be broken, it becomes necessary for the ruling party to win these elections. Because they have to verify that the people are liking their policies. Let's talk at the grassroots level. And usually, these elections are mostly won by the representatives of the party that is in power.
This has happened in the past too and if it happens again, it will not be a big deal for the people. But if these elections give a verdict against the Aam Aadmi Party, then it will become clear what the political environment of Punjab is. Because after these elections, the 2027 assembly elections will come directly.
Block Samiti members have not been allowed to have special constitutional power for a long time. Block Samiti members do not have such funds with which they can develop the four or five villages of their area of ??which they are Samiti members.
For every small conversation, they have to keep in touch with the constituency MLA. Due to which the common people consider it better to keep in touch with the MLA directly instead of connecting with the Block Samiti member. Due to this, the Block Samiti member has not gained the political stature that he has earned by working hard to win this election.
For this reason, perhaps there is no special enthusiasm among the opposition parties about these elections, but since this time the opposition parties in the election, Congress, Bahujan Samaj Party, BJP and Shiromani Akali Dal have to fight against the ruling party Aam Aadmi Party, so it is natural that this time these elections will definitely be interesting.
It would be good if the government announces the powers of the Block Samiti members before these elections. What discretionary funds will the person who wins this election have? What special right will he have to develop the villages under his area.
Since the Block Samiti elections are directly related to the rural constituencies, the main role of Congress, BSP and Shiromani Akali Dal will definitely be seen in these constituencies. Due to the rapid exchange of information and viral videos, politicians who are trying to score points inside will no longer work. The alliances will be the same as those at the party level.
It will be interesting to see which party emerges as the main opposition party in the villages. More importantly, which party will field candidates on its election symbol in this election.
