How a surgery changed my Political Perspectives!!



Most people accuse me to be an pro-corruptionist, when I tell them corruption is not an issue. The nation can develop irrespective of that. 

I mean it!! 

Last year at around this time, I had a severe ear ache and so consulted an ENT specialist. The doc was quick in recognizing the problem. He prescribed me a nasal spray. Surprised, I asked him, “I am here to get my ear ache cured, but you prescribed me a nasal spray?! What kind of a joke is this??” 

His answer was simple, ear ache is just the symptom, the real problem is in the nose. Your breathing pattern is bad and thereby the first organ to get affected is your ear. 

It took me an year to prepare myself mentally to sit for the surgery and now the problem is cured. 

And what has this to do with politics?!, Corruption!? Narendra Modi?! and Arvind Kejriwal?! You might ask! 
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Let me explain...

The honorable high court a couple of years back stated ‘The salaries of the government employees, especially the police department are very low. They are being forced into corruption...  Think about it, you expect a police to attend to you at 2 a.m in the morning at the very first call coz someone has looted your house, and the government pays him a paltry amount with which he cannot even run a 4 member family. Why the hell should he do that for you?? 

Am I supporting corruption? or trying to find the root cause of corruption? ( agreed that there are people who are sucking blood of the common man, but are they too not from among our system?)
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
This is where exactly I want to bring the most debatable leaders Mr Arvind Kejriwal and Narendra Modi into picture. 

I saw a speech of Narendra Modi ‘A group of farmers approached me and asked for free electricity schemes, I said brother power is not the issue here, you don’t need power for agriculture, all you need is water.. Ask me for water, I will get it to you by hook or crook... do not ask me for power.”

In yet another speech, when someone asked him ‘What do you think is the biggest problem faced by India today, his answer was not as common- “the way we think” was his answer. 

a lot more such examples of with how much broad vision did Modi solve very complex problems. You can see many of them on youtube.

Yes, he knows the difference between a PROBLEM and a SYMPTOM.
--------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Now comes our hero Mr. Arvind Kejriwal with a single point agenda- ERADICATE CORRUPTION. 

His point of argument - eradicate corruption, everything else will fall in place very automatically. 

Applying medicine at the wrong place??!!!!! 

Attacking corruption directly, will only make it come back with double force. 

Little did Mr.Arvind Kejriwal realize that this is all a very complex cob-web and corruption is not the epicenter but the very last point that has to be solved or to be even more precisely put, solve the invisible problems and corruption will wane by itself. 

The main reason why I love Modi is the exact reason why I do not like Mr. AK- HOLISTIC PERSPECTIVE

Yes, if not for Mr.AK's sick political moves like alliance with congress against whom he established the party, deviating from the very promise, he did to the people of Delhi that AAP will not form an alliance with neither BJP or Congress, I would have rated Modi only a tad higher than Mr.AK due to the former's already proven track record of good governance over the latter's proclaimed war on corruption although ideologically different. 

What had been a mere ideological (populist vs reformist) difference has turned into a personal hatred The next series of events that are unfolding are only fuelling and fortifying my hatred towards AAP. Just a matter of time before people will realise what is wrong and right. But, never in the history of world, time is irreversible.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
My point is simple...

There is a difference between PROBLEM and a SYMPTOM. 

Attack the PROBLEM not the symptom, it will be tough, but that is the permanent solution.

Do I need to explain why corruption is just a symptom and not a problem?? 

Well!! that is some food for thought for you...

  1. You're absolutely right my friend and nailed it. Fight the cause and not the symptom. Hope some sense prevail in the minds of AAP supporters who are suffering from blind optimism and getting carried away with short term fake actions of Arvind Kejriwal. Bring Modi and Glorify this nation. NAMO is the only solution for INDIA. Jai Hind! Bharath Mata ki Jai! Peace.
