Every politician and political philosopher would start criticizing the very idea of being apolitical, but can’t they see it is the need of our time. When all the systems that are working in the society befool us, when everything is corrupted, every politician, bureaucrat, media guys are under the shadow of doubt, will we not forced to discard the long-held beliefs and values? If we do not doubt the present system, if we do not question the essentialized notions, how can we think of an alternative?
Even after witnessing these mass homicides in the name of religion, race, caste and creed which are in tune with the results of the battle for power, how can we trust the system. Those who still follow the dictates of the party leaders have to understand one thing, i.e., they are making the country from bad to worse. Any ordinary party worker who claims that “we are right, others are wrong” won’t be aware of the cruelties they are inflicting upon the nation.
I would say only one thing that it is time to completely revamp the basic tenets of Indian constitution and political set up. Hazare might have asked only for a strong Jan Lokpal in which even the Prime Minister should come under. But the real issue is that we have to redefine even the basic principles, rewrite the constitution. There should be a strong governmental system..
The point is that while discussing about revamping the system, I am not an apolitical person, but very much political. I can’t help it. If we want to run our country successfully for some more decades, these changes are necessary, but we can’t give any guarantee how long it will last. The idea that one can rule, or lead another person in life itself is absurd, non-human. Man essentially is free, and he will always crave for freedom. Those systems of governments which failed to understand this can’t last long. The basic goal of governments should be to give complete freedom to humans ultimately
