Rajani kanth's special brand of politics



Rajani Kanth's statement that, “ he will resign three years after he is voted to power if is he is unable to full fill his--- promises” makes us wonder  about his understanding of the basic principles of  our democratic functioning. Parties are elected to power at the central  and state levels to rule for 5 years as per our constitution . It is neither a long term nor a short term   but, an adequate medium term to Implement  policies and programmes announced by a  party elected to rule  and to make corrections if some expected results are  not achieved. If he is going to run away after three years , whose money will he be wasted in forcing a new election within three years? His announcements has created more questions  than clarity about his political ideologies .The best example among them  is his statement regarding “spiritual politics” . Is it not his duty to explain about it?  This phrase   has made the political analysts to doubt about the force behind  his decision to make a political entry.  This single phrase is enough to alienate the  minorities from him though he talked grandly about religion and caste free politics . Indians know what is “spiritual  politics” since , India is currently experiencing the heat of it through polarisation of different communities. One more force in that direction is not good for this nations  vibrant democratic functioning .
