"will work diligently to form a Congress government in Punjab in 2027 - Advocate Vasu Ranjan"

Chandigarh, April 7

Advocate Vasu Ranjan, an advocate at the Supreme Court and Punjab & Haryana High Court and Chairman of the Council of Lawyers, on Tuesday joined the Indian National Congress.

In the presence of Punjab Pradesh Congress Committee President and Ludhiana MP Amarinder Singh Raja Warring, he took primary membership of the party. He was welcomed with a ceremonial patka, and Raja Warring expressed gratitude for his faith in the Congress.

After joining the Congress, Advocate Vasu Ranjan said that he will work to strengthen the party across Punjab and take its policies and ideology to every household. He added that he will launch a special campaign to connect youth with the Congress and will work diligently to form a Congress government in Punjab in 2027.

He also stated that he will soon meet Congress National President Mallikarjun Kharge and Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha Rahul Gandhi to initiate efforts to strengthen the party in Punjab.

He further said that he will work to take the ideology and vision of Congress to the people, including the contributions of former Prime Ministers Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi, and former Punjab Chief Minister Beant Singh, who sacrificed for the unity and integrity of the country. He emphasised that fulfilling Rahul Gandhi's mission of uniting the nation and ending hatred will be his primary objective.

Advocate Vasu Ranjan has long been raising public interest issues. Whether it is the matter of opening the Shambhu border, the issue of the Punjab government charging ₹80 for downloading FIRs, or the issue of compensation for flood-affected farmers, he has approached the High Court from time to time on all these matters. Additionally, through the Council of Lawyers, he has been continuously helping the poor and underprivileged.

On this occasion, Punjab Congress President Raja Warring thanked Advocate Vasu Ranjan for showing faith in the Congress and said that his joining will strengthen the party. Advocate Vasu Ranjan further stated that in the coming time, he will meet senior Congress leaders in Punjab and actively work to strengthen the organisation across the state. He expressed confidence that the Congress will emerge stronger in Punjab once again.

Another high-profile joining before elections. But will this actually translate into votes on the ground? Punjab's issues are complex - drugs, unemployment, agriculture. We need concrete plans, not just ceremonial patkas and promises of meeting senior leaders. The 2027 goal seems very ambitious.

Good move. His record of fighting for common people in court matters a lot. Charging ₹80 for an FIR copy is daylight robbery! If he can bring that same fighting spirit to strengthen the party's organization in Punjab, it could make a difference. Best of luck to him.

Interesting development. As an observer, it's crucial for political parties to attract professionals from diverse fields. His focus on uniting the nation and ending hatred is a message that resonates beyond Punjab. The real test will be how this ideology is communicated to the public.

Respectfully, while I welcome his joining, constantly invoking Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi in Punjab might not be the best strategy. The political landscape has changed. The focus should be squarely on the future - jobs, development, and Punjab's specific issues. The past has its place, but we must move forward.

His work through the Council of Lawyers for the poor is praiseworthy. If he can channel that same energy to rebuild the Congress base in Punjab, it will be good for democracy. A strong opposition is always needed. Let's see if he walks the talk. 👍
