BJP-SAD Alliance Possibly Back In Focus As Punjab Eyes Major Political Realignment

The Bharatiya Janata Party and Shiromani Akali Dal are reportedly exploring renewed alliance prospects ahead of Punjab elections, marking a potential major political shift in the state.

In the most recent Lok Sabha election, the two parties contested independently. The BJP secured 18.56% of the vote share but failed to win any of Punjab's 13 seats, while the SAD won one seat with a vote share of 13.42%.

The possible alliance revival could significantly reshape the state's political dynamics and influence the coming electoral contests.
