Last Year of Alliance Rule in Punjab

As Punjab’s Akali BJP alliance enters in the last year of their rule, and early next year state legislative assembly’s election is due, so this year state’s alliance government will do all the efforts to woo the public in its favour and avoid to take any harsh, anti public initiatives/policies which can put effect on to the result of assembly’s election. Simply one can say that this year will be populist year as far state government policies are concern and it will try to satisfy every section of society whether it is teacher, government employees, electricity, inflation or any issue which keep on simmer among state residents but ignored by state government, so if Akali BJP alliance wants to come to power again then they have to get rid on to below coded issues’ on priority basis –

• Teachers- Although teacher profession is treated as one of the highly respected profession because they are who enlighten blank minds with knowledge and put them on to the track where individual can prosperous in his/her life with hard work and ambition but unfortunately they themselves are living in dark even lack of basic facilities and for there basic rights they get down on roads often, from past two years now different teacher unions was very much in news because of there agitations against the state government like-

         Computer Teachers Unions
         Unemployed Teachers Unions
        Primary School Teachers Unions
        B.Ed Teachers Unions
       Government Teachers Unions
they keep on doing there agitations against state government but instead of getting any positive response from state government pictures published in the newspaper teachers being beaten by the authorities thus it keep on angry teachers unions against state government , now as they know in the election year they can get some favour from state government as ruling alliance wont do any aggressive
approach, so they can hope to get relief from government.

• Doctors – State government has hire the services of Doctors on contract basis and they are recruited in different villages to provide basic medical facilities to the public in the villages, but in the past they demanded for permanent appointment and other benefits from the state government but there demands were not listened by state government authorities with any assurance thus they force to end there agitation without any ray of hope, but now if they convince state government officials about there demands then they likely to get additional benefits.
• Electricity – Punjab state is going through the worst phase of electricity crises’ and state government assuring public that they will make Punjab state as surplus of power and efforts from state government are under way at different places in Punjab state as government is erecting power plants thus it is matter of time now, but right now at ground level power crises’ are so much severe that despite in the summer season other then from its sources state government is getting power from other states on banking system, still it was not able to meet the demands of power and spending time through load shedding, that’s not all and in the winter season state government has to return power to the states from where it has get power in the summer season thus again power cuts impose on the state and people are spending time throughout year under power cuts ,yes period very in season to season, so public waiting for coming years in hope of surplus and free of load shedding time.
• Inflation- One of the biggest demon which spilling intolerable fires with all cylinder is inflation and time gone by of almost one and half year public keep on grinding in the wheels of inflation without any respite and one after another essential commodities has make public vocal against ruling alliance, but shockingly BJP is blaming inflation as failure of Central Government wrong policies and time to time gets on roads to demonstrates against the Central Government, which is ridiculous as in the state it’s the liabilities of ruling party and if they find it any wrong policies of Central Government then they can reduce the taxes and give relief to the public.

So for everything above coded if state government wants to take action then they need money, but if one has to believe on to the reports then state government has given nod for development project in one of the big districts of Punjab through land assets of government by mortgaging it, then how government will face extra financial burden on to all the problem it is facing, so it will be interesting to visualise state government steps during last year of there governance.
