Elections in the states
Election process is on in four states. The results may throw light on the way next general election are going to be. At stake is the credibility of two major political parties- the congress and the BJP. However, the issues are going in the background and the easy rhetoric of mud slinging goes on. It entertains but fails to clear the mess. The voters are being confused. The T.V.channels encourage the blame game. It provides them easy and interesting stories.What happens in the life of the voters and the length & bredith of the country does not appear anywhere. The voters in the street and the village plaza know the issues and want democratic answers. The power elites ignore the answers and throw unreal questions.
Sadly, the major parties too fall into this trap. The foundation of the congress is its strong commitment to secularism and welfare, It has often faltered and recently indulged in the race of personal blame game with modi whose sole poll plank is Goebles' style false attack, repeating the lies and character assassination.
What the Congress, The Left and other democratic parties should do? Just concentrate on your fundamental issues, do not enter into personal blame game, do the politics of truth, humility and understanding, celebrate the diversity of india and focus on futuristic vision.The elections should be fought to strengthen democracy by educating the people about their rights and duties as well as the core fundamentals of your party
