Calculative Politics


The impending exit of Nitish Kumar’s Janata Dal (United) from the BJP-led NDA is the best thing that could have happened to both the parties – and the polity. And the only and best Reason is that  alliances should be based on fundamental principles and similarity of views, not mere electoral math or convenience. The breakdown of the 17 year old alliance between the Bharatiya Janata Party and Janata Dal United seems to be imminent. There is a huge difference between an alliance and a power sharing sort of agreement. An alliance is supposed to share some core ideas and similar principles. And a power sharing agreement is about compromising principles and ideals to gain power. So its crystal clear  in that sense that neither NDA nor UPA is an alliance. They are pre or post-election power sharing arrangements. This  is why the so called demise of the NDA is not a bad thing. At the core of the NDA alliance are just three parties: BJP , Akali Dal and Shiv Sena. All three share the basic idea that religious identity is important to their politics. The rest of the NDA is often reconstructed only after the election which shows who has what numbers to culminate in a power sharing arrangement.
 So why to make a calculative process such a thinkable issue. It happens and will keep on happening every time there will be a power sharing agreement.

ADVANI "UNCONVENTIONAL"


“It was Syama Prasad Mookerjee who brought Orissa Gantantra Parishad leaders to his party's first national convention in Kanpur. This reflected his willingness to join ranks with other parties to break the hegemony of the Congress. This was a message to befriend anti-Congress parties”..  Advani’s this statement reflects his willingness to unite the  NDA  ALLIANCES together. He gave this veiled reference on the JD(U)'s exit from the NDA over Narendra Modi's elevation as chief campaigner. Advani recounting his association with MOOKERJI spoke much more than he himself said. It seems that his remembrance for  MOOKERJI and his ideology was a way again to make the party leaders remind that for him BJP still was no more  the "same idealistic party" that Mookerjee had created. May be Advani thinks that after taking back his resignation , people will see all the things in the same old way, but his own “unconventional” statements makes the "AWAAM" rethink on his thoughts.

"POLITICS FROM ITS HEART"

Each and every man in this world ,be it an Indian or Italian or a Russian or any other country man simply think that politics is hell where nobody should get in. is it really so??? Well if this would have been the actual and real fact this entire world would have been headed by and have been under MONARCHY. But figures show that presently no country is under 100% monarchy. These figures are not just heck held filed , it’s the truth. So if politics is bad than why do people opt for a democratic form of government when we know that in actual it’s the democratic form of government which imbibes in it the most of politics . So why then we simply say that politics is a bloody heck. No it’s not a bloody stuff ..actually it’s the people or I should say THE POLITICIANS are bad. When corrupted people come in any field the field is said to be absurd or it’s corrupted
The same thing is with politics , it’s the hard luck of this field that very least good people joined it. Politics has always been a form of social work and it still continues to be the same. Only the people who are coming in it are NOT THE RIGHT ONES. They are not getting into to do welfare rather they want to get into it to earn for themselves. “a single fish pollutes the pond” and the pond is always accused for being polluted. Same thing happens with politics.
Today’s youth is not getting in this field because they find it filthy. But they should take it as a social work and get into it. A good politician is no less than a true patriot. Politics is the root of our country and instead of accusing the root one must nourish it and make it better so that the plant (our country) start flowering more.
