The new kid on the block on the Indian political scenario.A blessing or a disaster.?Boon or Bane? Thank the previous governments who ruled our country for Donkey years and messed up the canvas.They created scams, gates, controversies,and shamed us across borders.They had the good the bad and the ugly all kinds of personalities who seem to be embroiled in all such controversies time and again and yet coming out in the open defending their statements and stating that they have been misquoted.What a joke!Atleast the people of Delhi made one change and that was AAP.Jai Ho!! Kejriwal.
The Kejriwal phenomenon which has taken the country by storm, is also sailing in a boat that has to weather many storms inside and outside .I remember this quote"Be simple and smart , but not stupid".In real life we can make hundreds of statements and commitments, which may be doable or would appear plain unrealistic.Then he goes and grabs every opportunity to prove what he said and try to deliver on ground.This is very much scary.If we don't assess the depth and the priorities in which we need to address so many issues , it will be a big muddle.The intent may be good but by rushing into all these at once and trying to not only micro manage things but also assessing and validating candidates etc would lead to utter chaos.People will demand tons of explanations even if you BURP.Then come the populist measures called Janata Durbar( People gatherings) to hear their grievances .The turnout and the wish list is so long that it becomes an Anaconda of alarming proportions and twines around your own neck.The very first day turns out to be a disaster where the cops had to bail out the CM.If you don't want the security etc under the guise of austerity measures its ok, but the risk in a place like India and its repercussions are huge.The poor beat cop gets thrashed and even more stressed realizing that he can see the risks and yet cannot act.
Wearing a cap and walking around as a candidate doesn't make everyone a Kejriwal.What's under the cap is what matters.The rush to spread the tentacles of AAP political ambitions is further going to make life miserable.We have inexperienced people who have never governed or addressed real complicated issues on ground.How does one expect them to deliver on all fronts , across India and on the Global fabric??Why the rush??Why not prove what one can deliver as a party in a smaller area and then get to grips with the larger issues.This is where inspite of being an IITian, and an IRS person, one may fail as the technicalities and politics don't tread on the same space necessarily.I am also an optimist and wanting to change India but all this chaos and number crunching seems to make me pretty apprehensive and seeing the other party members shooting their mouths off at the drop of a hat literally is serious indeed.Hope , the people of India realize the same and drive sense and patience in this runaway train called AAP.
