Focus on Strengthening the Party

Phoolka appealed to the SAD core committee to launch a comprehensive membership drive, pledging to be among the first to register. While expressing his commitment to the party, he clarified his immediate intentions: "I am not seeking any designation within the party or planning to contest elections. My focus is solely on fortifying the Akali Dal and restoring its original stature."

Background and Political Legacy

HS Phoolka has a distinguished track record as a senior advocate and is well-known for his relentless pursuit of justice for the 1984 anti-Sikh riots victims. He previously held membership in the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) but resigned, citing differences in ideological alignment.

Phoolka's decision to join SAD comes amidst shifting political dynamics in Punjab, where the role of regional parties is increasingly being debated. His entry is expected to bring a fresh perspective to the party's strategy and operations.
