"Politics is the art and scope of possibilities"
Arvind Kejriwal, a cogent orator and an impeccable strategist is catching the public attention and as the nation was looking for a hope, a stage has been set for a new kind of politics and if there is any person who has took the complete advantage of this is Kejriwal, himself.
The man with simple looks and fine ideas is naturally a better leader. He wrote in 'Swaraaj' about self-governance, giving power to local bodies and village budgets.The fathers of our constitution couldn't give much freedom to villages keeping those day circumstances in mind.
Now the time has ripe for many things and people are ready to follow a leadership of honest origins and sensitivity and Arvind is banking on it but the real question is, Is his approach right? Could he lead this movement in future with the same momentum? Does his perfectionist stand will help to take right measures to build a right nation?
This nation in many ways is a paradox. We believe our system as a pseudo-democracy largely controlled by opportunist-politicians and crowny-capitalists. Arvind believes the same and has spoken of over-hauling the system in mere 10 days after he gets into power.If it happens,world history will have a page for miracle.A miracle larger than the collapse of Berlin wall.
In the same nation,the media has utmost freedom,the people are free to pursue their interests and they can hit streets whenever they want.They can burn any effigy of their choice and they can bring any one to power and they can throw any one from power peacefully. More than this,this nation had seen a brilliant set of political reforms in the recent past. Majority of this political reforms have taken place with out people hitting the streets and irony is the majority of people didn't even know about these political reforms. All the memory can catch is RTI.
Before taking on some one,its important to understand, who are the victims? and who are the culprits? and in Indian system, we largely find victims rather than culprits.The politicians and capitalists,whom the general public hate a lot are victims. If the system was right always,they would have been right in many ways. Now if you speak of punishing every one even not leaving the victims may work for some time but its end results will be unfair for the majority.
Instead of concentrating on past happenings, blame-games, if Kejriwal team can think about right policy implementation and instead of entertaining people with plenty of issues,if they can concentrate on taking up the few issues and fight till the end will make a sense,if they want to institutionalize the honesty.
Its not a 3 hour film which can be shot in an year or so and released for a week in a theater and then count your collections based on the entertainment you provided to the people and in films you can create as many villians as you want but the nations can't be build in an year or you can't run a 'change reel' for an odd 3 hours.It needs unending patience and if you keep on telling people that we will change the nation pretty soon, there is a chance of killing the movement in the same time-frame they are visualizing.
The perfectionist stand will definitely not help as the politics is the art and scope of possibilities. We cant run the show as we want. We need to run it as per the possibilities. If you keep on building pressure on victims,who may be in power now; it deteriorate things rather than helping the things.Some one need to learn of making the way brick-by-brick and i.e., an amendment after amendment.
Definitely, we need a nation where right and instant justice will be the pillars of our governance but at the same time we need to understand that we don't need a nation only for prosecutions and punishments.
The think-tank of Kejriwal team has to introspect this question-What the end result we want out of this movement in both the best and the worst case?Biting more than what your mouth can afford is suicidal and in this nation its pretty possible to build a silent and strong revolution and Arvind and his team has every advantage now.
