# Punjab Ekta Party

The Punjab Ekta Party was a political party in India, founded by Sukhpal Singh Khaira on 8 January 2019. It was a Punjab-centric regional party which later merged with Indian National Congress on 17 June 2021.

## History

* Sukhpal Khaira was elected in 2017 from the Bholath constituency on the ticket of the Aam Aadmi Party. After the resignation of H. S. Phoolka as Leader of the Opposition in the Punjab Assembly, Khaira was appointed as his replacement. However, due to differences with central leadership he was eventually sacked from the post.
* On 6 January 2019 he resigned from the Aam Aadmi Party and on 8 January formed new party. He also declared interest in making an electoral coalition with like -minded parties in Punjab for the 2019 Lok Sabha elections.

## Ideology

As per Khaira, it is a party to "liberate Punjab from the clutches of corrupt traditional parties" of Punjab.
* It is a Punjab-centric party which promises to end corruption, sand mining, transport, cable mafia, provide justice in the 2015 Guru Granth Sahib sacrilege case, and stop police firing incidents.
* The Party has raised alarm on the prevailing water crisis in the state. While Khaira has expressed concern on the dwindling groundwater levels mainly caused by excessive irrigation and heavy use of pesticides, he has also blamed the previous and the current governments of both the state and the center for giving water to Rajasthan and Haryana states from Punjab's share in an arbitrary manner and also failing to implement crop diversification and water saving irrigation techniques.

## Parliamentary elections, 2019

# Palais metro station

Palais (French pronunciation: , lit. 'Palace'), formerly Beaux-Arts (pronounced , lit. 'Fine arts'), is the largest station in the Charleroi Metro network, located in Charleroi downtown, in fare zone 1. Because of its situation on a slope, the station terminates on a viaduct at one end (toward Ouest and Piges), and in a tunnel at the other end (toward Waterloo).
The station has two street entrances leading to a mezzanine level where ticket counters and shops are located. Platforms are accessible from the mezzanine through escalators and stairs.
The station has one lateral platform that used to serve former lines 88 and 89 to Anderlues, and one central platform that currently serves all lines. A third platform, not accessible to passengers, is used to exhibit old Charleroi trams.
One particularity of the station is a reversing loop for light rail vehicles entering the station from the west (from Piges or Ouest). It is used by lines M2 and M3, leaving the central loop on their way to Anderlues and Gosseiles, respectively, to enter and leave the station from the same side, thus needing to execute a U-turn. To do so, vehicles first pass through the station on a track not linked to any platform, then enter a loop shaped tunnel to end up in the station again, but from the other side.
The name of the station comes from the nearby Palais des Beaux-Arts (Fine arts palace), a music/theatre venue.
