INDIA Alliance In Punjab : Preparations are going on for all the parties for the Lok Sabha elections 2024. The opposition alliance against NDA is trying to unite. But, many big leaders seem angry with the opposition alliance. First Nitish Kumar left the alliance and joined NDA, then now Mamata Banerjee and Arvind Kejriwal also seem angry with Congress. In Punjab, Bhagwant Mann has decided to contest the elections alone and Mamata Banerjee has also said that she will contest the general elections alone. In such a situation, will TMC and AAP be separated from the INDIA alliance? These questions are being raised.
Indications of contesting elections alone in Punjab and Haryana
Amidst all these speculations, Punjab Chief Minister Bhagwant Mann has indicated to contest elections alone in Punjab and Haryana. He said that by the end of this month we will announce all our 13 candidates from Punjab and 14th from Chandigarh. After this statement, while on one hand there is panic in the opposition alliance, on the other hand BJP has also taken a jibe.

Another blow to INDIA alliance
BJP’s national spokesperson Shehzad Poonawala has said that the INDIA alliance has suffered another setback. He further said that Arvind Kejriwal has announced today that AAP will contest alone on 13 seats in Punjab and one seat in Chandigarh. This means that INDIA alliance will not contest elections there, there will be no alliance there. He also said that the structure of INDIA alliance is crumbling. Questioning the alliance, he said that this alliance has no mission, no vision, only commission, only corruption, only confusion, only contradiction.

Neither the announcement of the name of the convenor nor the decision on seat sharing.
Let us tell you that neither the name of the convenor has been announced yet by the opposition alliance nor any decision has been taken on seat sharing. There has been resentment among the constituent parties of the opposition alliance on these important issues. The alliance has suffered a deep blow due to the departure of JDU in Bihar, while there is sadness in the camp due to not getting the support of many parties like BSP and BJD. In such a situation, when Aam Aadmi Party has talked about contesting elections alone in Punjab, questions are being raised whether something similar will happen in Delhi also? If this happens then it will be a big blow for the opposition alliance.
