Time to look at future

One of the major news this week was the internal matter of Bharatiya Janata Party. At some stage in what has become a sorry mess, the leaders of BJP must sit together and ask themselves as how things got in to this stage. For, all the summary action taken against party leaders who have suddenly become dissident stands exposed as illogical and without basis.

I think of two points out of whole scenario.

Number one, if I were to compare this with any corporate functioning, this seems to be sheer failure of leadership. A leader should always think through a performance system where able and achiever stands to gain. It has not happened in BJP after recent elections. It is a scapegoat politics. This kind of leadership attracts failure for sure. Also, leader should be in a position to own up the responsibility of the failure and take every one in to the confidence and come up with an action plan. Leader needs to have that courage and honesty to accept what has happened and think through strategic steps as how entire operation can be improved. Perhaps, crisis is the time when we need leaders who can guide entire system out of danger. If leader appears to be helpless and leader starts the blame game, then there is nothing much can be done and this is what exactly has happened with BJP.

Second point, as a citizen of India, do I care much about what was history? Agreed, we need to have history and need to learn from that, but my point is, if a particular person is nationalist or secular is not going to solve my current problem. Let history be as what it has been. If someone wants to change the history let them..

As a political party, BJP should start understanding the current problem we are facing as a country. Plan for future as how you will provide education, how you will improve the transparency in the system; how one can create more jobs, how one can revive the industry/agriculture sectors, how you can build competitive infrastructure, how one can build a better healthcare system. More importantly, how entire dirt from the system can be removed.

Being Indian, I do care for this rather than some small piece of history. And this will attract more voters then doing commentary on history. Even media appears to have given importance to this where debates after debates has gone air and loads of paper has been used to write about views/counterviews. We don’t dam care about this.

Time to look for building the future!
