Summary
In this episode of Indian Updates on Radio Haanji 1674 AM, hosts Pritam Singh Rupal and Ranjodh Singh break down the massive political shakeup in Punjab. The discussion covers the historic appointment of businessman turned politician Kewal Dhillon as the new Punjab BJP State President, marking the party’s first major Jat Sikh leadership gamble ahead of the 2027 elections.
