Interesting Indian Politics in Last 2 years :
India has seen a terrific ups and downs in the politics in last couple of years. One side where Congress has been ruling the country from last two terms, other side BJP under the name of Modi has been trying to establish his wave all around the nation, and very recently the entry of Kejriwal led AAP has brought them into limelight.
Delhi, The state which was on fire for last two years with lot and lot of burning issues say Common Wealth Games scams, Inflation, Corruption in MCD, Anna Hazare Lokpal bill andolan, Swami Ramdev andolan, Nirbhaya Gangrape, Formation of AAP which kept the state on the media all the time, and people badly needed a change.
Delhi public got an opportunity to release all their anger in the recently happened Vidhan Sabha elections and their anger completely fired congress who were 41 seats in last elections who ended up reducing to just 8. BJP under the leadership of Dr. Harshwardhan managed to get 32 seats, but the party who won the hearts of public was Aam Aadmi Party.
Evolution of Aam Aadmi Party and Kejriwal
Aam Aadmi Party shocked all the opinion and exit polls who gave them just single digit seats in their polls. It was confirmed that no government could form as it was a three way.
AAP initially denied to give or take support to any party, BJP clearly refused to do any give and take, and stepped back to form government, and hence congress came into action to support AAP.
AAP's Dilemma of Delhi
It was a big dilemma for Arvind Kejriwal, whether to take support from the same party against whom they fought the andolans, and who was known to be the most corrupt party. He decided to put the ball into public, distrubuted 25 Lakh letters to public, used social media and SMS , arranged physical rallies to know the mood of public.
Finally, on 28th December 2013, Arvind Kejriwal, with the support of congress from outside, formed the goverment and took the oath as the chief minister.
The Question is Who would be most benifited by Kejriwal being the chief minister ?
If you're answer is the Public of Delhi - I would answer it as NO.
Kejriwal went to public to ask if they should take support of congress or not, It was not at all necessary as far as I think because it was quite obvious people would love to get 50 % less electricity bills, 600 Litres free water, corruption free Delhi.
Public had voted them to bring them into government and to make them fulfill their promises, and why would public deny them to make government.
The one who would be benifited mostly would be 'Congress Party' . It may sound weird, but Yes.
Why Congress
The current situation of congress is, they themselves know that the Projection of Rahul Gandhi vs Narendra Modi for 2014 LS elections would be a pure fluke. The mass crowd at Modi's rallies and lack of crowds at Rahul Gandhi's rallies, The results of the 4 state vidhan sabha elections , all the things has made congress conclude that they need some strong thing or strong projection to reduce the Namo Wave across the nation.
Now, Kejriwal being the recent Hero's into the recent Indian Politics, Delhi youths and entire Media, has got an opportunity to finish all his promises.
Congress is indirectly projecting Kejriwal against Modi, supporting them from outside. If Kejriwal is able to carry his government very well in upcoming few months, it would be a definite headache for BJP as AAP is already planning to contest Loksabha elections.
It would cut the BJP votes all over the nation, and the youth who has been supporting Modi, AAP would try to pull them in favour of them and hence indirectly cut the BJP votes.
MODI has been a common competition for Congress and AAP, and there is nothing bad, to shake hands together to fight against a common competition. It is said that Dushman ka dushman dost hota hai
Hence, The Congress would be in most benefit now, as their strategy is to project Kejriwal against Modi, and enjoy the advantage of it in Loksabha elections 2014.
Loksabha 2014 elections and results would clear all the things, clear doubts and bring out all the queries. Till then wishing All the best to all three parties. Jai Hind.

ReplyDeleteOne thing I don't understand over here. Most of us including myself said the famous Paresh Rawal's dialogue from Nayak... when Anil Kapoor didn't want run for CM post..
ReplyDeleteNow when Arvind Kejriwal is successful in bringing such a revolution, I don't think this is right to bring politics into it all over again. AAP can do what they promise is only if they are into power and they got a chance and went for an alliance with Congress.. We should respect that decision..
People have been dribbled like a Football between Congress and BJP for the past 60 years and more.. Now is the time to try out AAP and see what they could deliver..
May be this is the revolution we all were waiting for.. Both Congress and BJP are playing dirty politics... and if you want to clean this gutter, some dirt would be spread on your hands as well... Give AAP a chance!!
Akash I think its not benefit to congress but its loss of bjp if aap work well.
ReplyDelete@Rajesh :
ReplyDeleteThis post is no where 'Anti AAP'. It is all about Congress' strategy. I wanted to convey the message of "Sideeffect advantage" to congress, with AAP and congress growing.
Bottom line of the post was : "Congress is supporting AAP just for the reason to project him and create a competition between Modi and Kejriwal, or to be specific, want to affect the Namo Wave across india by projecting Kejriwal.
That is the reason, Congress willingly gave chance to AAP to form govt.
@Hiren : Exactly. And If there is Loss to BJP, then Indirectly its Advantage for Congress.
ReplyDeleteCongress clearly knows that they are gone now, the only good thing for them right now is to stop Modi wave across nation, or create damage to BJP.
we are with you Kejriwal sir. we are always with you to support you.
