Will Kejriwal Party be any different?

In one of my previous post I welcomed the decision by Team IAC (India Against Corruption) to form a political party.

The bitter experience by every existing political party made me hopeless and pessimist.

Will Kejriwal Party be any different?

What if he also become the same, another name in the list of corrupt Indian politicians?

I have been worried, scared and doubtful.

However I think that if I continue to vote for UPA or NDA or 3rd front, things will hardly change. They will continue to do what they have been doing.

I have made my decision that I will vote for Kejriwal. Corrupt UPA or NDA or 3rd front will hardly change anything. But Kejriwal might do something good for India. The reason behind this faith is Kejriwal's reputed work in the Right To Information and India Against Corruption movements.

Though I still suspect that the history will repeat it self.

Mahatma Gandhi lead us to freedom and a herd of corrupt, selfish and power hungry politicians took over the nation and started ruling for generations with personal agenda alaways over the top of the national agenda. Bapu spent his last days in extreme despair. His soul still might be grieving. Bapu could have gifted this legacy to his children and they could have ruled. But his generations hardly have any influence in the politics of India. Bapu did not think of his own children and that is one of the reasons to call him the Father of the nation.

Decades later, Mr. Jayaprakash Narayan gave us another movement. This gave birth to many powerful leaders of today. But these leaders did not do any different. Jayaprakash Babu spent his last days ailing and desserted. His soul might be still ailing.

I have a feeling that India Against Corruption movement lead by Mr. Kejriwal will be another historical movement. But I afraid that again this movement will bring same result in the long run. But I wish not.

In the great Ocean of
Indian Political home,
Tsunami of movements
will continue to come.

That will wash away all
and change it's dimension,
will raise new hope and trust
and put a new foundation.

Then waves of opportunist
will take over again,
and start leading India
for personal gain.

The history will repeat
in the ways big or small,
India will keep going on with
heroes like Bapu, JP, Kejriwal.
