In the frustration and hopelessness came a party which thinks that there needs a change in the rules of the game of Politics.
Oh! Great relief.
Let us first take a look at why educated or coomon people shun away from politics. (I am not from Political Science or Socialogy or ...I don't know what other branch)
In the existing Political scenario, the party expects the people to work voluntarily. An educated common person cannot even imagine spending his time not using for some revenue generating activities like bussiness or jobr higher studies. The scene is such a dirty scene, any association with it is viewed with a suspicion or probelm creator.
Take an imaginary person who completed a graduation degree. In a normal situation what
would the sons or daughters including of LSP think or parents allow them to pursue. Either
a job or Post graduation or starting/taking care of Bussiness. If you are in bussiness
supporting one party will only prove to be detrimental if aother party comes into power.
So who is left to work for the party. The rich who can afford to spend time without money
or who can withstand the stigma of being attached to a party.
If a person has a gap in his resume he/she has to satisfy with convincing support how it was
used or why the gap has come. Even educated women face a problem because of this gap
though they say it is for taking care of children or family. Imagine if some one has a gap
because of association to Politics.
So 80 to 90 % of educated are going away from politics. Instead the political parties should
have a collective fund and generate employment to educated youth and they can be
encouraged to take active part in the party politics.
But unfortunatley LSP which vouches to bring radical changes thinks of collecting donations
and taking voluntary services like existing parties.
What was surprising to note is most people educated or uneducated also think that the political parties should work on donations. Then how much is much? How long people can continue doing voluntary service. Could it be that they are thinking it as investment to get back after they come to power? Otherwise why do we encourage such volunteerism. After all a volunteer in a temple has a more voice. So in a way the leaders are fixed. So the people should donate for thier present expenditures like travel, phone etc and win them as leaders with great sacrifice.
All these should be addressed by Dr JP and LSP to win the educated mass that it is really intending to radically change the rules of the game. Else it can be a new bottle with old wine.
