It's said that when protons and neutrons collide, energy is generated...as the political scenario heats up, and with the churning taking place in our socio-political environment AAM AADMI PARTY has been that kind of energy which has been released due to the political friction going on for decades between the two of the biggest and old political parties....
It is also a fact that nuclear energy is harnessed and used for larger benefit of the populace, but can be lethal and spread collateral damage...
And that's true with any form of energy release...AAP is bustling with enthusiasm, and wants to change the old rusting decaying system as quickly as possible...it's like a child wanting to eat all the chocolates at once! The force with which they have stormed the capital and the imagination of the country can be their biggest advantage as well this disadvantage!
AAP should be careful in structuring the force that they have unleashed with their honest and revolutionary approach that has awakened an unprecedented response somewhere lying dormant in the nations collective sub conscious ...the AAP wind blowing across the country needs to cautioned and I am sure Arvind kejriwal is a man with gut and common sense....he is at the centre of the storm and may loose his sight as he is only experiencing huge energy and gusts....
This has been an age of revolutions...and revolutions have a side effect!
History has witnessed leaders coming from nowhere and leading countries to progress as well as decadence....through their revolutions.
India "lives" inside its many countries...and that's where lie its political complexities...Gandhi's vision and steely belief lead us into a free INDIA from the clutches of the British Empire,but creation of Pakistan is also a historic reality!
History has a strange way to hold mirror for those who want to learn!
Indira Gandhi's "hand in glove" democracy style saw birth of corruption and strengthening of dynastic politics....she believed in silencing revolutions which lead to her fall!
Rajiv Gandhi's dare to dream" vision and Manmohan singh's understanding about opening up India globally made eyes turn world over as the country was able to unleash its giant opportunistic youth power for it to progress not just locally but also internationally....a technological revolution saw india get connected and embrace aspirational trajectory !
Then the pace slowed down and systems began to fail....politics of religion, of corruption and violence overshadowed the intention to take the country forward...with its technological revolution slowing down!
Regionalization creeped in politics of coalition for Governments to sustain....
As in every respect local became national...rural became the new urban...marketing become the mantra to weave perceptions and create political heroes!
It's here that people"s faith quivered in the monotony and cacophony that became the only remaining halo of politics! emanating as routined imagery from their TV sets, computer screens, tweets, face books, and daily newspapers....as new reality!
A reality that saw fading of hope..and a need for a revolution...
It's here that a simple man from Ralegaon started to speak up and his protege began to understand the power of common man as their revolution surprised everyone cause all they were selling was unadulterated HOPE! A brand and an idea that was waiting to be lapped up were born!
Discovery of fire changed the way human race started to live...can this fire ignited by AAP be controlled from wildly spreading into useable form of energy source?
can it be used productively like the nuclear energy for lighting up people's homes and imagination to create the glow of sustainable hope that can propel this country in direction of non corrupt governance?! Could there be an ideal "dream"???
Can corruption be abolished forever???
Can we stop bribing roadside policeman?
Can we not jump signals on empty unguarded signals?
There lies the monumental answer for a simple question born from the womb of this new revolution...
If the answer is YES....we shall live a dream and create history....for generations to come...
BUT if the answer is only YES due to the current EUPHORIC ENERGY release....
It would be amateurish to draw destinies too soon....
A year of hardcore pain is endured by a tree to give us the sweetness of a mango fruit ...for the sweetness of hope to fructify AAP will have to walk and endure the tough road of Indian politics...laden with minefield of issues and power hungry characters...in such a scenario will team AAP be able to write a story with happy ending?
The countries populace will have to support the intention of this revolutionary bubble to open up its sea...with maturity and patience....
Can "we the people collectively" support the vision of this new change?
When a leader/political movement inspires the mood of a nation, it's the responsibility of its democratic populace to respond...for in democracy the KING is only the reflection of his SUBJECTS...
For now the national capital has witnessed and sensed a dream start from AAP camp...and as the famous song goes....Every loser wins once the dream begins....in case of AAP the only difference being they have begun by winning...for them to win long term they might have to loose in short term....and that would be good for a worthy dream to take shape...
