Leadership bankruptcy
Rousing the masses, and independent governance (day to day) are different in approach and enforcement. One is ruled by the heart; the other by the head (technocracy and professionalism, regardless of the political approach enunciated by the political leaders in power. A gourmet is not necessarily a good cook. In between the kitchen and the dining table, there is the pantry (the art of presentation). What is the effect of overdose of political cosmetics? Name some examples of political alta, mehndi, and uniformed dresses.
The civic society leaders have stressed more on the 5-year Plan, than on ADPs (ad hoc solutions). A 3-year regime is better than the existing 5-year regime [less time available for planning corrupt practices in dev projects]? See how haggling for percentage deprived us of more electricity and gas since 2001. Note the post-campus roles of the student leaders who control many powerful but dubious syndicates today in society. The CTG has a tough task ahead--so many fronts to take care of.
Hence today there is a demand for banning party politics on the campus. Why student and labour unions were employed as political workers? It is the economic and educational levels of the vast majority of the voters [mostly rural based]. Daily wage earners cannot work voluntarily for political masters. The bakshish syndrome is entrenched (since the Raj age). Politics of oiling and makkhan-baazi!
Who surround the top party leaders in dynasty rules? Name some court jesters as we read in the school textbooks. Political {party} insecurity is the curse of the poor nation. Have-nots abound at higher levels of the society, who cannot resist temptation.
The latter is a part of universal religious philosophy; the other being tolerance [for the right cause]. These virtues are practised through public services.
Therefore it is not surprising that religious extremist groups have sprouted: what is coming out of the gun barrel is a language of communication!
