Kudos to the Aam Aadmi Governance….

So now I am supporting the Bharath Bandh called on 5th of July. Very initially I was opposing it, for

1. Unnecessary complications, as parties may not be united. Party supporting it will be frustrated and may wend its frustration on public property as a showcase of strength.

2. Administrative standstill, even my Driving School is closed. Offices will shut down and surely an official leave wont be granted.

3. Indirect support of INC allies spoils the intention.

Reasons why I changed sides:

1. It’s obvious intention.

2. If govt. decides to cut down the prices even by 0.01%, the administrative losses incurred can be recovered.

3. This should be the first time where all political parties, excluding the INC are taking part. This is a rare sight in contemporary Indian Political Scenario.

4. This Bandh will surely make some impact on the minds of the lax commoners who distance themselves away from politics even if they are worse affected.

SS: Before commenting please note, Indian Politics has an extremely decisive and equally nascent interpolation called Sentiments.

Does that put things a little into perspective?

By agitating against a govt. we don't achieve anything, try to male the most of the situation. Prices will keep on rising. Why don't our attitudes rise? The Indian worker is perhaps the laziest in the world. Why don't you take objection to that and try to change it?
