The Dangerous
Chaos that we have Embraced
Dear Sri Arun Nehruji,
Greetings for Durga Puja celebration. I write with reference
to your above article in TNIE 14th Oct.2012.
1. Gloom & Doom Theory: While, I agree with your
contention that our politics is increasingly getting fragmented; even, at the
regional level; however, don’t share the “gloom and doom” theory of ‘anarchy
& chaos’. This could be the political churning due to greater awareness,
confidence and empowerment in the society while interplay between these issues
and disillusionment with poor Governance can’t be ruled out. Eventually, there
would be a slow movement from “Personality driven to Policy Driven Politics”.
And, what could be the single most important policy? Than to see “India
2. Psephology 2013-14: Your analysis on numbers has
some glitches as it does not give representation to Left, Tiny political
parties and Independents. I pursue a hypothesis in which Congress would have
lost half of its mandate- max 103 seats if election were held in 2013 and it
would be in double digit if election was pushed to 2014 (as per schedule).
However, I agree with your prediction and with all available indications BJP should
not be bridging beyond 150. But, just incase electorate wants to punish
Congress severely with a Negative vote; BJP may just could be the principal
beneficiary being the main Opposition clocking 200 plus seats (though looks
very unlikely given the ground situation). Regional parties put together
most likely to reach 223-240 seats (Also, as per your prediction).
3. Suggestion: Arun Ji I have read a lot of
complementary reference to you as first ever Internal Security Minister in the
book “Bullet for Bullet” written by Julious Riberio. I wish to suggest you to
do some thing about “Political Unity and Political Collaboration” across the
political parties to bring little sanity and stability to our Govt. and
Governance; irrespective of which party rule at the centre.
Thanking you.
Kind Regards,
Bikash Choudhury
