Waris Punjab De Seeks Expedited Registration from Election Commission Ahead of 2027 Polls
Akali Dal Waris Punjab De has urged the Election Commission of India to expedite its registration as a political party ahead of the 2027 Punjab Assembly elections. The party applied in January 2025 and received a positive verification report from the Punjab Chief Electoral Officer in April 2026, but the Election Commission has yet to issue a public notice. The party alleges delays are hindering its election preparations and questions objections raised before the mandatory public notice. The Election Commission has cited sensitive inputs regarding the party's alleged separatist links.
