While I don't disagree with your point of trusting the same traitors, the question is whether there is a credible, appealing, Sikhi-based political alternative to SA-Badal, SA-Mann, SAPP-Bittu, and the answer is none. My opinion is Panjabi Sikhs look at the situation and think well which party will do less damage to Sikhism out of BJP, Congress and SA-Badal (note that Panjabi Sikhs wont even consider Khalistani parties) they go with Badal. There needs to be a proper opposition party with a good agenda and in-depth policies related to prosperity of Sikh religion alongside development of Panjab for the situation to change
