The "Rahul" Brand of Politics - Innovation or Repackaging?

For a Person who feels that Politics is in your "Shirt & Pants", Mr. Rahul Gandhi entered the Indian Political arena a little late.....He announced his entry into the Indian Political Space by running for Amethi constituency in 2004 Lok Sabha elections when he was 33 years old.....With the "Escape Velocity of Jupiter" he has achieved things which many other can only dream of!! In these 14 years journey, he has risen from a Party man to National President of Indian National Congress. Of these 14 years, 10 years were ruled by UPA with Congress as the core, he din't become any minister in those 10 years so that an ordinary Indian can judge his work ethics & governance style. Now after 14 years (without any experience in governance) the Man has declared that he will be PM if Congress emerges as "Single Largest Majority".  His PMship & Is he PM Material or not is not the topic of this Blog Post, instead the topic of discussion here is hi

The Politics Behind "Only 31% Voted for BJP in 2014"

India is World's Largest Democracy, with 800+ Million eligible voters it's just a miracle to conduct a free & fair elections in such a diverse country. Commendably Election Commission of India (ECI) is doing this job since 1951 when first General Elections were held in the country. Many westerners argued that this exercise will fail but ECI & Indian Citizens are proving them wrong again & again!! Elections & Choice of The People for a country which was under foreign rule for centuries is very important as it reinforce the true meaning of the word FREEDOM!! But since 2014 there are questions raised on the process of elections & in turn the choice of an Ordinary Indian. If one din't win an election, he/she/it has no right to question the win of the other side. But sadly this has been the very case right from 16th May 2014 where Opposition (& many others) parties have started to say that only 31% of Indians voted for BJP while 69% rejected it.
