My kudos to
Kejriwal, Ramdev and Anna Team: To achieve his aim of corruption free India
kejriwal/Ramdev’s partieshave to win majority seats in the Parliament: How will
they do it is not clear. It is not likely that they would get absolute
majority in Parliament. I think Anna, Ramdev, Kejriwal and some new influential
and honest individuals like Gen. VK Singh who are entering into politics on the
plank of anti corruption should join hands, drop their differences, get elected
and form an alliance to save India from the unscrupulous looters. Even if they
get 100 MPs, they can make their presence felt. These parties and honest individuals
with no corruption and criminal stigma attached would have better chance to
win. But in Indian politics cast and money play great role. How will they deal with that is to be seen?
Perhaps they would have to find honest chaps at village/grass root level in the
cast dominating constituencies? All the political parties are corrupt though
having a few honest ones also. In the present scenario where Kejriwal has
opened front against all the political parties and corporate houses, they may
join hands against Kejriwal/Ramdev’s parties to save themselves from
prosecution at a later date by the strong Jan Lokpal Bill which the new parties
would like to pass after coming to power. Political parties other than the UPA should work
to topple the UPA now taking advantage of the corruption wave against it and
form a new alliance on the plank of anti corruption, may be with Kejriwal/ramdev’s
parties after elections. Politicians are known to be strange bed fellows after
all.
Kejriwal
has declared that he will form his party in November 2012. Meanwhile he is
revealing scandal after scandals every week thus creating awareness in public
of the massive loot of national wealth and tax payer’s money by a few and
embarrassing the concerned politicians, corporate houses and powerful
individuals. In the process he is making powerful enemies also though gaining
the sympathy of the masses. This may be a dangerous but good strategy for a
short period if elections are held within next six months. In the long run,
till 2014 if he keeps repeating this, people may get bored in absence of
concrete follow up and loose interest as all this would become a routine and
one or two days news for the benefit of the electronic and print media and a
little talking point or gossip for the day. He must be aware that mass memory
is short. Politicians know better than I. Time is short; he has to move fast.
Meanwhile let us look forward for a better democracy.
