Sub: Alternative Political Front

Esteemed Mr. D.Raja,

Greetings for New Year 2012 for you and your colleagues in Communist Party of India though we are in the third week of Jan 2012. I have studied your comments on ‘alternative political front’ in The Hindu of 15 th Jan 2012 and appreciate and also support such a political movement on National interest. A new political front based on policies and programs all the more important at this juncture as we compare the relative progress made by China in our neighborhood. (China has grown its GDP 10 times between 1998 and 2006, in about three decades) There is no reason why India could not achieve the same if competitive politics is substituted with collaborative one and Institutional arrangement is revisited in an organized manner to deliver Roti, Kapda & Makan with Bijli, Sadak & Pani to our people living at the bottom of pyramid.

I find current competitive and strident politics in both sides a threat to development and political stability; in contrast all political parties and their opinion and perspective should be respected even if not conceded to; which would open scope for co-operation and collaboration on policies and issues inside and outside parliament.

Mr. Raja, you being a very senior Ideologue of your party and politician with respect across political parties must consider dealing with broad fault lines of our polity; and, let us not make, the same mistake that our feudal leaders made some 300-500 years ago while dealing with Britishers.

I wish if you could invite some leaders from other National/Regional parties to your Party National Congress and make them listen to the deliberation and hear them out; we could effectively build a foundation for Collaborative Politics in the country and which invariably would enrich our democracy and effective Governance achievable in not so distant future.

Thanking you a lot.
Kind Regards,
