Since
the day of declaration of results of Delhi Assembly on 8th Dec. '2013, there
has been a mad rush of forceful advices to AAP to form government in spite of the
fact that they are no. 2 with 28 seats whereas BJP is no. 1 with 32 seats.
Leave aside Congress; the irony is that no. 1 party is asking no. 2 party to
form government.
In
my view, there appears a hidden malice desire behind this coercive tactics to install
a lame duck government headed by AAP and pull it down later on silliest ground and
discredit it totally before 2014 parliament elections. The political mahapundits of both Congress and BJP are
unrelentingly pursuing this unique trick to demolish the Kejri “Wall” created
by AAP and immobilize them before parliament election. Their argument in the
old traditional way is that government must be installed once the elections are
over. Are they not trying to mislead the people with this logic? What is the use of
installing a lame duck government to serve some political purpose of certain
political class? A bad, inefficient and corrupt government is not a better alternative
than not having a government at all. The day to day affairs can be run by beaurocratic
machinery alone under Governor/LG till the fresh elections are held. Moreover,
the additional cost of re-election is not a big issue in this country when the
cost of corrupt governance is very high and lacs and lacs of Rupees have been
lost in corruption with no sign of any efforts of recovery from the corrupts. In
a country where, many prominent leaders do not hesitate to contest more than
one seat without bothering for re-election and nation incurring its cost after
their vacating a seat, the logic of cost of re-election is meaningless and hypocritical.
Therefore,
AAP must continue to stick to its stand of not forming government in Delhi.
