Punjab bypolls set to shape political direction amid protests, shifting alliances, and public discontent.

- TARUNI GANDHI

CHANDIGARH Punjab is gearing up for another election cycle with bypolls scheduled for four pivotal constituencies-Gidderbaha, Chabbewal, Dera Baba Nanak, and Barnala-bringing both political alliances and public discontent into sharper focus. With frequent elections and their accompanying model code of conduct, Punjab's political scene is in constant flux. A notable aspect of this byelection is the resurgence of farmers' protests, where unions have extended their disapproval not only toward BJP but also AAP, signalling widespread discontent.

Known as Punjab's "Mother of Elections," Gidderbaha has traditionally set the tone for the state's political landscape.

THE U.S. AND IRAN: ADDING TO THE LIST OF FIASCOS?

One hopes Trump doesn't leave the freedom seeking Iranians hanging. If Trump does, he will add to the long list of American missteps in the Middle East over the last 47 years. All of them were avoidable, and people were sounding the alarm, and ignored. Reviewing the history makes for grim reading.
