Even for committed AAP supporters the party’s performance might have come as a surprise. The success of Arvind Kejriwal and his party AAP is due to a well orchestrated media campaign for which AAP deserves congratulations. The single most characteristic that worked for it was honesty along with humility a quality BJP should take note of.
During 50 years of corrupt regime the prices of essential commodities boomed to 30 times putting poor public in a pitiable condition. So when a leader stood with a single slogan and commitment of removing corruption public voted him with great hope.
Kejriwal’s spoken out against netadom showed transparent ways of being within the matrix of politics. He has shown that clean politics is possible. Anna Hazare, the most sincere man in India, started a relentless movement against corruption of the Congress. Kejriwal as his committed disciple got the full advantage when he formed his Aam Admi Party and fought election, but he is more a symbol than a neta.
But this movement against corruption is only a means and not an end in itself. The ultimate aim should be the economic, mental and educational development of the country to remove the crushing poverty and backwardness of the masses. Thus Anna will also not be able to achieve only through his Lokpal Bill. Here Kejriwal shall have to learn from prosperous countries like USA Japan, Germany, etc.
At present Kejriwal has no experience in the development of industries, agriculture education, roads, canals, electricity, military power, production of armaments, etc. It will take 20 years for him to learn all this, till then he should cooperate with a party whose sole aim is the emancipation of the country and who has full experience of the above subjects.
Coming to the Congress, it is a matter of surprise that even after more than 50 scams, destroying the economy of the country, weakening all the democratic institutions of the country in order to perpetuate its dynastic rule it has managed to get good number of votes, because due to lack of publicity and information people are unaware of the total damage done to the country by Congress.
Rahul and Kejriwal both talk of selfless service but the common man now has taken Kejriwal seriously. There is a saying ‘you can fool people sometimes but you cannot fool them all the times’. This is what has happened in this election. People have simply ignored all the sweet and big promises and freebies given by the Congress. This is a very good lesson for all the political parties of India.
When Congress achieved freedom it had no experience of governance and economic development hence it resorted to socialism and secularism, which have done maximum damage to the country. Congress also resorted to the drama like Nehru Chacha, garibi hatao, sleeping and eating in Jhopadpattis, travelling by train in 3rd class, shaking hands with the masses by Rahul Gandhi and the latest is by Salman Khurshid that Soniaji is the mother of every Indian, a cruel joke, which deserves to be ignored. Today people are realising that the intentions of the Congress are not sincere. All the leaders of Nehru Gandhi family are rootless. They disregard the soul of India. This is the root of all corruption and immorality. They have no love for the masses. They cared only for the power for which Indira Gandhi imposed cruel Emergency on people to save her chair. The entire story of the Nehru-Gandhi family is only the ‘Kissa Kursi Ka.’ And today they are perhaps one of the richest people of India.
In order to capture Muslim votes, Congress has done everything to appease them without removing their poverty and backwardness, so Muslims are also slowly getting disillusioned from it. Hence Congress is now trying desperately to pass the Communal Violence Bill 2011 to capture Muslim votes, which will create permanent rift between Hindus and Muslims. This is ‘divide and rule’ policy of the Congress.
On the backdrop of these two parties now comes the BJP led by Narendra Modi, the game changer. He is on rampage to decimate the Congress. There is a yearning today for decisive experienced leaders who can deliver the goods and there is nobody in India who has this quality better than Modi. His brain is full of wonderful ideas like Sadar Patel’s ‘Statue of Unity’ He has articulated the mood and feelings of the masses by announcing that he wants a Congress-free India. This is like ‘Quit India Movement of Gandhi ji, which has energised the masses of India into an anti-Congress mood’. It is also like Tamsoma Jyotirgamaya i.e. from the 50 years dark rule of the Congress to the shining prosperous rule of the BJP.
Modi has turned a poor Gujarat into a golden Gujarat through good governance, where there is no terrorism, no rape, very little corruption, – democracy is the selection of the lesser evil – coupled with full development in industry, agriculture education, roads, electricity, water canals etc for which 67 countries of the world have given awards to Narendra Modi who has become an international figure by now and they want to come to Gujarat to learn from him. All BJP ruled states are progressing on the same line of development. The victory of BJP is a victory of the truth over falsehood Satyamev Jayate it is a cultural revolution whose time has now come. BJP consists of a galaxy of great leaders like Advaniji, Rajnathji, Sushama Swaraj, Arun Jaitly, MM Joshi, Vankaiah Naidu, Vasundhra Raje, Shivraj Chouhan, Raman Singh and many others, the like whom are nowhere to be seen in any a political party with proper publicity. BJP is destined to win three hundred seats in 2014 election.
Hence in the interest of the nation AAP should support not oppose BJP if it sincerely wants to work for the emancipation of the nation.
