( The Punjab Agenda is a comprehensive series focusing on the key challenges, priorities and future direction of Punjab. The series brings together the perspectives and recommendations of KBS Sidhu, Retd. IAS, former Special Chief Secretary, Punjab and Convenor, Shiromani Punjab Forum, and Col. Jasjit Singh Gill (Retd.), Environmental Activist.
The series aims to present a thoughtful, practical and Punjab-centric agenda covering issues that are critical to the state's governance, economy, agriculture, environment, water resources, education, employment and sustainable development.
Importantly, The Punjab Agenda is not a final document but a discussion paper open for debate, suggestions and constructive criticism from political and non-political thinkers, academics, civil society groups, professionals, youth and all well-wishers of Punjab.
With the Punjab Assembly Elections of 2027 on the horizon, the series seeks to stimulate informed public discourse and encourage all stakeholders to contribute ideas that can help shape a stronger, more prosperous and sustainable future for Punjab. The objective is to place Punjab's long-term interests above partisan considerations and promote a meaningful dialogue on the state's future course.
