On the contrary, the first condition for fulfilling one’s desires to dedicate one’s life to politics is that one should be sensitive, have the ability to rise above one’s family and fulfill one’s duty towards society and not shy away from one’s responsibility in any difficult situation, no matter how much sacrifice one has to make for it. In politics, fulfilling personal interests, accumulating innumerable wealth and means of comfort cannot even be thought of, because such a life is like that of an ascetic or not being attached to worldly things.
The second condition of politics is that there is no guarantee of success in it, there is no provision for your work to be praised or your status will increase, you will be praised or you will get some benefit or position. Sometimes it will seem that you have reached the heights of the sky from the ground and the next moment you can be thrown down to the floor. This is the truth of politics.
In politics, only when individuals start becoming scholars do they start becoming politicians. There are two categories of them. One is those who discuss and take decisions on the challenges, problems, basic issues like poverty, unemployment, facing their region, society, state and country. They make policies or get them made with their ability and discretion and implement them. The second category is those who work to destroy the public’s discretion, that is, those people will do what Netaji would say. From the government treasury that is created through taxes, they get involved in providing them with free food grains, rations, cash money, and all the facilities sitting at home without working hard or earning money. Most people have started entering politics so that people start considering them as Gods, that is, so that the leader has control over their hearts and minds and they are not capable of taking decisions themselves.
Let us understand the matter with some examples. The entire country is becoming increasingly affected by air, water and environmental pollution. It is difficult to breathe, infections (infections or viruses) are spreading in the lungs and we do not even demand from the government and the administration that they should use the country’s advanced technology to ensure clean air and clean water. In the eyes of the government, this is not a priority and the public does not say anything, so mountains of dirt and garbage are piled up. The ruling leaders and their cronies tell the people to put a mask on their faces, drink boiled water and go out and show that pollution is a lie spread by the opposition parties.
Look at the second example, when industries and factories were being established in the country, people were coming to the cities from rural areas to get jobs on a large scale. Where would they live? Instead of industrialists or entrepreneurs making arrangements for their accommodation (although they had agreed to this while taking land and other facilities from the government that they would make arrangements for the accommodation of workers, artisans and other employees), they asked the officials to turn a blind eye to this by giving bribes and commissions and on the other hand they set up a slum mafia and set them to work to illegally build slums on vacant government land and settle the workers in their factories. Later they told them the trick of getting free electricity here. Similarly, arrangements were made for water and toilets, because all this was done without any permission and planning, then stench and dirt started spreading all around, diseases started happening and in a way this problem arose by forming a fistula in the middle of the luxurious colonies.
Netaji would come and say that we will protect him, all we have to do is get his votes. In this way, slums are common sight in every big and small city of ours today. It is said that 30 seats of the Delhi Legislative Assembly can be formed by any party thanks to these slums. Similarly, there are big metropolises like Mumbai, Chennai, Bengaluru and Kolkata. Thanks to these slums, any leader can be allowed to remain in power for a long time.
More than 5 crore cases are pending in the courts of our country and no one knows in what time the hearing will take place and when the decision will be made. Similarly, only one-fourth of the prisoners lodged in our jails have been sentenced and the rest are still ‘under trial’ or are in jail without any crime. There is no one to interrogate them or grant them bail and they keep blaming their fate. The number of people who are victims of petty fights or enmity or not obeying a miscreant is in lakhs.
The tragedy is that some leaders are so eager to be arrested that they assume it is actually their in-laws’ house, because all arrangements are made there for their safety. A leader serving a sentence for a scam, sexual harassment or financial crime is greeted by a crowd at the jail gate and when he is released on bail, a crowd plays drums and gives him such a welcome that even the revolutionaries of the freedom movement bow their heads in regret that they sacrificed everything for so many people.
What kind of law is this, which can give a terrorist and a traitor the right to contest elections from jail, but deprives a prisoner of the right to vote.
Call it a trick or ability to push the public at will, even knowing the truth, people remain silent, tolerate injustice and consider it a skill to keep their mouths shut. Whether educated or illiterate, rich or poor, employed or businessman, businessman or industrialist, everyone keeps thinking that no matter what
Well, finish your work and go on your way in such a way that you reach home. Criticizing the government or finding flaws means incurring a lifelong enmity with Netaji. Even if we assume that the government of the corrupt party falls with their vote, there is no guarantee that the next government will not do immoral things. This is what it means to control the thinking of the citizens so that they can never protest.
There is no doubt that some honest leaders of the country have tried to work for the welfare of the countrymen and increased the honor and dignity of the country and given India a glorious place in the world, but their number is very small. Most of them have worked to increase their personal and family assets. To fill the government, that is, the public’s money, in their coffers, they have formed many NGOs or foundations. No one knows how much and from where money is transacted in these. They say that the money for contesting elections is given by the public, but in reality it is extortion money, which is spent unaccounted for in elections and since no one has the right to know its source, no one can know where this money came from. Is this democracy, really?
