In a major development, Shiromani Akali Dal and Mayawati's Bahujan Samaj Party have joined hands for the Punjab Assembly elections in 2022 after the former ended its ties with BJP last year after the row over the farm bills. As per the reports, Sukhbir Badal approached BSP for forming the alliance. The two parties joined hands 27 years ago in the 1996 Lok Sabha elections when they won 11 out of 13 seats in Punjab.
