So let me start with AAP.
Its genesis and incarnation is perhaps not lost on any one. Yet it was viewed with immense skepticism, by the unworthy opposition and even by Anna Hazare ,whose efforts were seminal and unwittingly gave credence to its formation.That the fortitude and resolve of a handful people could shape it so well, bears testimony to the patriotic spirit that is intrinsic to every indian, albeit diffused and confused by political machinations of over half a century.
AAPs spectacular performance at the hustings in Delhi has left the Congress in disarray and the BJP in a quandary. How ironic that these mainstream parties who have been championing the cause of the common man, "aam aadmi" find it so difficult to accept the inevitable, that the political landscape in India is changing.
For 67 years India has endured the malgovernance, arrogance and highhandedness of self seeking and self serving politicians and political parties based on caste, class, religion, dynasty and sops, who conveniently led India on a path of self atrophy. But in one fell swoop, a ray of fresh light, AAP, has changed it all.
Much to the chagrin of these wily politicians, AAP will deliver far more than they and the victimised, hoarding and ignorant masses, can imagine. Perhaps the first step in saving India from self atrophy has been taken.Reminds me what Armstrong said after stepping on the moon.
