10 Reasons Why We Think Arvind Kejriwal’s 2015 Isn’t Going To Be Cheerful
Will the New Year bring fresh luck for AAP?
Well, Kejriwal
is trying hard. He has already started his campaigning, while his main
opponent, BJP, is self-confident that no matter how hard Kejriwal tries, it is
a different ball game all together compared to the 2014 Assembly election
run-up.
Kejriwal has
some impressive ideas to start with it. For a change, he has given a break to
his whistle-blowing activities.
He has promised
to provide the youth with 800, 000 new jobs, entrepreneurial training, improve
sports facilities, solve the paani-bijli problem and make Delhi India’s first Wi-Fi
city. Really, now.
However, what
will make Kejriwal’s return to power an difficult task?
Let’s keep the
list short.
1. The number game
Can Kejriwal get
to that magic number of 36 seats on his own?
Seems like
climbing a mountain without his boots, to be honest. Rest assured,
Congress would be lucky enough to win one seat this time.
2. People’s person to power-hungry
Ironically,
committing a crime in politics is considered okay but a mistake is not!
No wonder, why Kejriwal
is still troubled by his mistake of resigning as the chief minister till
date. His resolution is that he will never resign again. (Chalo,
better late than never!)
3. Political affairs of dharna
He goes to
dharna and fasts whether he is in or out of the government, because either he
gets slapped, or his minister is under attack for being a racist.
Has Delhi not
seen enough drama already? Even they have a right to a stable government.
4. From AAP to MAIN
Members have
quit the party or have dismissed their application in the past citing reasons
like lack of internal democracy, messy internal functioning, corruption and discrimination
within the camp.
If there is no
internal democracy then how can the party guarantee external democracy in the
long run?
5. Delhi Dialogues to Delhi monologues
There were no
dialogues or interactions in this event which was surprising. More than
listening to the ambition of the youth that was present for the event at
Jantar Mantar, AAP was more interested in preaching.
Let’s see if
that changes.
6. Modi mania
Narendra Modi is
like the Australian cricket team of the 21st century’s first decade:
Unstoppable!
He has not lost
an election where his name is involved (barring Kashmir).
7. Media's favorite child no more
Unlike last
assembly elections, Kejriwal goes to this one with a lot of media criticizing
behind him. The media has toyed with his image throughout from being a 'Savior'
to a 'Bhagoda.'
8. CCTVs v/s Drones
It seems that
the Delhi police is light years ahead of ideas about how to contain rape in the
city. Post Uber, Kejriwal has promised to install CCTVs for women's safety if
voted to power whereas the Delhi cops are already working to install mini
drones with night vision cameras from next month.
Advanced?
9. AAP horses up for auction to BJP traders
The upcoming
elections will be closely fought and BJP might resort to horse-trading if it
falls short of majority. Will the AAP chief's men be prone to dissociate from
the party in that case? We have been witness to AAP dissidents in the past
though.
10. Taare Zameen Par
Arvind is
different from the rest. You might call him politically abnormal but he is
gifted. He believes in no political alliances because all parties are corrupt.
In one of his
recent interviews, he said, “If my morality is compromised, I will leave
politics and sit at home.”
Whatever they
might say, we agree that there's something about you, Kejriwal Sir.
