  1. This phenomenon is neither a Punjab thing nor is it a recent phenomenon, Political parties have always co-opted various cults and god-men. Baba Ram Rahim is not that different from Asaram Babuji.

  2.  @sankalp6872  ya I should have added Mullahs and Church pastors too. Since, Indira, political culture in India has devolved into a culture of bootlicking. Party workers bootlick dynasty that runs the party, dynasty bootlick religious leaders, religious leaders bootlick lawyers and lawyers bootlick the judges and judges bootlick the dynasty that runs the collegium. It's just bootlicking.
