With street campaigning gone and political posters and flags appearing only on major highways, Hari Lal, a 70-year-old barber from Sangur, feels uncertain about voting for the first time in his life. No more fantasy. Hari Lal said: “Over the years we have tried several parties but nothing has changed on the ground. I have always voted since I got the right but this time I may not have so much trouble. My pessimism Behind the emotion lies a sense of betrayal.
Jagtar Singh, a farmer in Gurdaspur village, has a similar sentiment. People are tired of the repeated failures of their elected representatives and are now telling activists to switch off their loudspeakers. Asked about his plans for June 1, Jagta said: “I don’t have any motivation to go out and vote in such hot weather. I would rather stay at home and cultivate the fields than waste time.”
There are more than 20 candidates for Sangur Lok Sabha seat, which has nine constituencies. The main contenders include sitting MP Simranjit Singh Mann of the Shiromani Akali Dal (Amritsar), state minister Gurmeet Singh Meet Hayer of the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) and Sukhpal Singh Khaira of the Congress party. From 1952 to 2022, including by-elections, the constituency had representatives from different parties including Congress, AAP, SAD, Communist Party of India, Akali Dal (Sant Fateh Singh) and SAD (Amritsar) 13 members of parliament. Bhagwant Mann helped AAP win this seat in 2014 and 2019.
Giving another reason for the loss of interest among voters in the region, private bank manager Love Deep Singh said: “All major political parties have fielded outsiders. These candidates are interested in Sangrur.” Not very familiar either.
