The Interpid Revolution

This is the definition I got when I surfed the internet about this term called Politics.Well,according to me politics is a portmanteau derived from the two words poly meaning many(numerous) and Tricks which literally means an act to fool or swindle someone. 

                      

                        So, here is my definition for Politics. Politics is an appositive phrase, meaning, 'The government plays numerous tricks for which, the common people are primarily the deplorable victims'.

                            My hatred towards politics started at a very tender age.My dad used to force me,to watch the News channel every day. I’d love to hear any sort of news except politics which mainly had pessimistic kvetches of one party over the other, corruption, dishonesty, scams and occasionally some disgusting news like ministers watching porno inside the parliament , a minister who was imprisoned for a million dollar scam turning out to become the Member of parliament and rouges being elected as ministers etc. (I’m sorry if I was little pessimist myself there).

                             So,what made me write this post? I’ve already turned 18 and I am about to get my voter identification. 

                          I had an idea to cast vote for the new addition by the Election council where the voters had the option to reject all candidates by voting for “none of the above” (NOTA). The option however is simply hypothetical—votes marked to “none of the above” would simply be ignored while deciding the winner and it wouldn’t matter even if over half the votes were for NOTA.

                          The question is, am I going to do this all throughout my life? However, the Right to vote act clearly states that it is in the hands of the citizens to elect a perspicacious representative who would govern the country with utmost solemnity and sincerity and voting just to show that you are capable of voting is sort of disgracing and disobeying this Right.

                However, the recent scenarios in the field of politics made me to blow away the cobwebs. An educated common man grows up from nowhere,begins a revolution, contests elections and outshines turning down the fate of a political organization which had its roots in this soil ever since freedom.

                  I felt happy after I read the news about people refusing to accept money or any other form of bribery from any political party to cast their votes for them in return and also the stern rules stated by the election commission.

                It takes a lot of cognizance and intellect to predict something which is about to happen in the future. When Kalam sir predicted that India would become a super power by 2020, I thought it was a lame joke with this present situation, really!!.May be that was because of the domination of my pessimism over the optimism but,with the present economic and political outcomes and news about the educated youngster’s taking up the charge and initiative, India would definitely become a Developed superpower by 2020.A country which is already being feared for her power would be extremely revered for her socio-economic status in the future.

              I remember how my grandparents used to feel proud when they say that they lived in this same soil and was a part of the freedom movement when India got her freedom.If everything turns out well as expected, Even I’d have the privilege to boast to my son that I lived in this soil when India was declared a superpower.
