The agricultural laws, the year-long protests against them, and the final repeal of these laws in a statement issued by Prime Minister Narendra Modi, laid the foundation for the parliamentary elections in Punjab. It is speculated that the farmers’ union may seek an alliance with the Aam Aadmi party in its major decision to participate in this crucial election. Farmer leaders said that any such alliances will be announced at a later date. Many farm unions that are part of the umbrella organization SKM decided to stay away from electoral politics. Kirti Kisan Alliance, Krantikari Kisan Alliance, BKU-Krantikari, Doaba Sangharsh Committee, BKU-Sidhupur, Kisan Sangharsh Committee, and Jai Kisan Andolan opposed joining the competition.

SKM stated that its main goal is to promote the abolition of agricultural laws. SKM core committee member Gurnam Singh Chaduni also established a political body, Samyukta Sangharsh Party, which will participate in parliamentary elections.
