This blog is for those, who, still think, that, politics is a dirty thing and, one who is crook, criminal, manipulator, wants to make lots of money by corruption and wants to yield power over others, goes into politics.
They are majority right in thinking so, if Indian politics is any example so far, where, good people, also became bad once they got elected. Because power corrupts and absolute power corrupts absolutely.
But, please do not reach to above conclusion in the case of every politician. There were, and there are still few politicians, who has not got carried away by power and the dirt it carries !
They are still clean and fighting against the wrong of present day Indian politics.
Who is responsible for all the negative in Indian politics ?
I will say, we the people of India are the main reason of dirty politics ! We vote for criminals, we vote for money, gifts and alcohol, false promises, we vote for people on the name of caste and religion. We have double standards ! We want others to be honest, non corrupt but when, it comes to our own self interests, then, we forget all our high thinking, morality and will do all wrong, to get benefit from the same politician, whom, we want to be honest ! We will make him dishonest by asking undue and unreasonable favors.
How ?
1. By voting for a criminal politician, who has many cases of murders, corruption and wrong doing, still knowing all this, we think, he/she is a hero, he is superior then us, because, he has has courage to break the law. Phoolan the dreaded dacoit and murderer was one of the many example, that people made her reach to parliament by electing her.
2. Come election and our many cunning politicians bring attractive slogans, which sound so good to ears and promises things, they will not able to fulfill, make us vote for them, and we are made fool again for 5 years, its going on for years since our freedom from Britishers. Little, Mahatam Gandhi knew, that, for whom he gave his whole life will be worst then Britishers and will make slave of Indians by Indians Netas.
3. Worst of all is that, our political parties to win elections, makes election strategies, based on religion, caste and languages.
They will not hesitate to divide, Hindu, Muslim, Sikh, Christians, Jains, Buddhist on the name of religion and whats worst, after religious divide, they will further divide, Brahmin, Vaishya, kshatriya, Jat, Goojar, Yadav, Kurmi, Lodhi, SC/ST, OBC, tribals and you name it, if any thing else is left to divide, Indian society.
We become blind and brainless and vote someone of our caste, thinking, that, the person of own caste is only good for them, does not matter, if that person is a criminal, corrupt has no understanding of development and progress of constituency has a whole.
Political parties needs numbers of MPs in parliament and MLAs in state assembly to rule and continue to ruin the nation and society by having wrong people in temple of democracy.
