If you are really, I mean REALLY concerned about ALS, please research or at least know what ALS is before taking that stupid Ice Bucket Challenge and wasting the precious resource, I'm sure you know what that is! And once you are convinced that you know all about it, please donate $100 which is much more acceptable, kindhearted and generous gesture!
Its funny how a so many celebrities often gather at social causes, give long speeches, and show how sympathetic they are towards the victims, but its silly how a few are rather taking up this ruthless challenge (even twice if required) and having no second thought about donations. Now doesn't that sound too inhumane? Or hypocrite as I may call it. A friend just nominated you, and if you don't, GHOSH! The police will end up at your place and lock you behind the bars right? Now I really wish they did, since you have NO IDEA at all how much of what you have wasted for that 5 seconds of fun! Yes, I call that FUN. Cause if you were so very concerned you would have bothered to donate directly and not even taken the pains to fill a freaking bucket with ICE and feel that chill!
It would have been so much more fun if they framed the sentence as "dump a bucket of ice water on your head AND donate to the ALS Association in the United States" instead of "dump a bucket of ice water on your head OR donate to the ALS Association in the United States". I'm sure the videos would have been half the amount of videos circulating on internet right now! I'm all for the good causes, don't get me wrong, but at the cost of something that people are dying for, SORRY! DO NOT comment if you don't get my point here.. I'd be thankful!
A single rainfall in Mumbai was enough to make the Rs 4000 Crore Metro leak! Wondering where that cash went then? Well, it just sailed in the water, I bring to you 10 hilarious (or not so hilarious) pictures that our social media enthusiasts took bugs with at the makers (Reliance) of this travel-with-shower medium!
My personal favorite is the one which has Nargis Dutt and Raj Kapoor posing in an umbrella (I'm actually singing pyaar hua ikraar hua), isn't that picture just too cute to be put in 'A MUMBAI METRO'? And I think the badly photoshopped is the one with a lady carrying two water pots...!! What do you think of these photoshopped versions of Mumbai Metro Showers, comment below and let me know! Also there are lost more coming up since this definitely isn't the end yet, so make sure you post them in the comment below.
We Indians have an expertise in making random stories out of a rumor, sensationalizing it, and making it look so realistic that the person almost turns the culprit. And while somebody is trying to stand up for the rights, we make sure he/she is dragged so low to the level that it proves to be a roller coaster fun for us. Another bug bite in Indians is, “Beta, kisiko mat bolna, (chaar) log kya sochenge”, although there are more than chaar involved in the skill mentioned in the first line. Duplicity takes a peak, when we don’t allow anybody standing up for their rights to move ahead, or rather help, but talk about other biggy-wiggies that we do, which are obviously 95% exaggerated.
INHUMANES TURNED GURUS, AND THEIR “MUCH REQUIRED” SAY!
Home Minister of Chhattisgarh Ramsevak Paikra- Such incidents do not happen deliberately. These kinds of incidents happen accidentally
Former Chhattisgarh Home Minister Nanki Ram Kanwar- Harm can come on a person if the stars are in adverse positions. We have no answer to this, only an astrologer can predict rape.
Samajwadi Party leader Mulayam Singh Yadav- Boys and girls love each other, later they have differences and the girl goes and gives a statement that she has been raped. And then the poor fellows are sentenced to death. Should rape cases lead to hanging? Boys are boys, they make mistakes.
BJP veteran leader Babulal Gaur- Rape is a social crime which depends on men and women. Sometimes it is right, sometimes it is wrong. Until there is a complaint, nothing can happen. Unless the person wants, no one can dare touch her. The item numbers in films create a bad environment. Also foreign culture is not good for India. Women in foreign countries wear jeans and t-shirts, dance with other men and even drink liquor, but that is their culture. It is good for them, but not for India, where only our traditions and culture are ok. Let women consider what is good and bad for them.
Uttar Pradesh (UP) Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav advised reporters to look up Google to see that his state was not the only Indian state where rapes happened.
Samajwadi Party leader Ram Gopal Yadav - Vulgarity, obscenity and violence shown on TV channels is to blame for the multiple incidents of rape and assault in UP. In many places, when the relationship between girls and boys come out in open, it is termed as rape.
SP leader Abu Asim Azmi- If you keep petrol and fire together then it will burn. There should be a law to ensure that there should be no ‘nangapan’ (nudity). Those who wear less clothes should also be banned. Fashion and nudity are responsible for the current situation in India. And in rural India, girls don’t go searching out for boyfriends. I support death penalty for the Delhi rapists but there should also be a law that women should not wear less clothes and roam around with boys who are not their relatives. What is the need for roaming at night with men who are not relatives? This should be stopped.
Leader of khap panchayat of Haryana Jitendar Chattar - To my understanding, consumption of fast food contributes to such incidents. Chowmein leads to hormonal imbalance evoking an urge to indulge in such acts.
Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader Ramesh Bais- The rape of grown up girls and women might be understandable, but if someone does this to an infant, it is a heinous crime and the offenders should be hanged.
Puducherry Education Minister T Thiagarajan- Girls should wear overcoats so that men are not driven mad with lust. The meeting of ministers has resolved to introduce overcoats for girl students, operate special buses for them and ban mobile phones in schools. Our government is committed to ensuring safety of women, particularly girl students.
Manohar Lal Sharma, a lawyer who represented three of the Delhi gangrape accused- The male companion of the murdered 23-year-old was wholly responsible for the incident as the unmarried couple should not have been on the streets at night. Until today I have not seen a single incident or example of rape with a respected lady. Even an underworld don would not like to touch a girl with respect.
Self-proclaimed godman Asaram Bapu - The Delhi gangrape victim should have taken God’s name and could have held the hand of one of the men and said ‘I consider you as my brother’, and should have said to the other two ‘brother I am helpless, you are my brother, my religious brother.’ In other words, if she had begged for forgiveness and cited the fraternity of man and called to God for help, all would have been well.
Rajasthan BJP leader Banwari Lal Singhal- Ban skirts as uniform in schools. The intention of this demand is to keep girl students away from men’s lustful gazes and for their comfort in hot and cold weather conditions. Skirts should be replaced by trousers or salwar kameez.
SUCH A DISGRACE!! Doesn't matter which party they come from, or who they are, but when such men who can influence masses at large, have words like this to say.
Coming back to Preity, something similar happened! Well, it’s sort of a ritual now. So, yes, there were people who commented on her personal life as if they've handled her and her life very dutifully, people who posed as lawyers and agony aunts and uncles, saying if what Ness did was right/wrong and how, then there were our prestigious news blogs and reports providing news about everything from Preity’s previous affairs to her flop filmy career, but yeah, as usual nothing about the real reporting in connect to the actual case. And twitterverse already knows how Times Now has a knack of getting all lame hashtags WRONG, it transparently showcased its skills in this case too, by hash-tagging #PreityNessMess.Yes, some people carried forward the hashtag by providing their Non-required opinions, and made it trend, while some who know had read what "journalism" actually means in various dictionaries, tweeted. Ashish Shakya, and Tanmay Bhat, both stand up comedians in their tweets said, "#PrietyNessMess, because class is something they don't teach at journalism school." and "Good to see that in the midst of all this the media hasn't forgotten it's duty of running c****ya hashtags. #PreityNessMess" respectively.
Until one day, Harrish Iyer who is an Equal Rights Activist, posted a status about the actress without mentioning her name. And the information he shared, I am sure many like me were unaware of. Thanks to our certain media who are too much into mending Bollywood relationships and creating DPs for our stars while they are at dinners.
So what happened next? I dug out from Google, and found a chunk of information which read, ‘Threatened by the underworld- Unlike most of her colleagues in the film industry who succumb to the pressure of the underworld, actor Preity Zinta stood out in that respect and headed straight to the courts after she was threatened by the underworld. It all started when Preity received threatening calls from the underworld while she was shooting for the film 'Chori Chori Chupke Chupke; in 2000. Zinta told the sessions court in Mumbai that she received a call from a man who said, "Main bhai ka aadmi Razak bol raha hoon aur mujhe 50 lakh chahiye". The producers of the film Bharat Shah and Nazim Rizvi had been charged under the Maharashtra Control of Organized Crime Act (MCOCA). While the brave Zinta girl was lauded for her guts, Preity surely had to go through a lot and can be easily termed as the biggest low of her life.’

SCENE: The actress had received threatening calls from the underworld while she was shooting for the film Chori Chori Chupke Chupke in 2000. Preity told the session’s court in Mumbai that she received a call from a man who said, "Main bhai ka aadmi Razak bol raha hoon aur mujhe 50 lakh chahiye." She was told that she would have to bear the consequences if she did not pay up. And Preity was the first film personality to have supported the prosecution in the Bharat Shah case. Actors Shahrukh Khan and Salman Khan, producer-director Rakesh Roshan, directors Sanjay Gupta, Mahesh Manjrekar and Anees Bazmee, producers Harish Sughand, Ratan Jain, Ali Morani and Mohammed Morani had all turned hostile and retracted their earlier statements.
Below is a small piece from Preity Zinta herself that she posted on Facebook on June 14th, and this one is sure to touch your hearts, and more than that, shake your brain to make it work.
“From my heart….
I may not be super wealthy and powerful but i have truth by my side and I’ve worked very hard all my life and tried to earn respect for myself as a self made professional. It saddens me that no one at work or around ever stood up for me in the past when i was abused and insulted publicly. This time i was left with no option but to take this stern step as this incident happened in front of way too many people.
Sometimes we are so ashamed and humiliated that we fool ourselves to believe that no one saw what happened. Everyone always looks away as if they don't exist or then we don’t exist. People are embarrassed just enough to look away, but not too embarrassed to intervene.
Ironically what happened at Wankhade is being diluted by every other fabricated story about my character except the truth of what happened. I'm sure the witnesses will speak the truth and i trust and believe that the police will do their job fairly and quickly.
No woman likes to be involved in a controversy like this which makes her open and vulnerable for all to take a dig at. I have worked for over 15 years in the film industry and have never been subject to such humiliating behaviour and for that i really want to thank all the men that worked with me. Through all our highs and lows my head was always held high.
Every human being has a limit to how much they can take ; some of us foolishly call it strength and try to look ahead focusing on the positives of work and life. All these years i have never said anything about him in the media but now i have no choice.
I humbly request the media and my supporters to pls focus on the issue and the incident that happened in Wankade and not turn this and me into a TV soap. This is not easy for me and my intention is not to harm anyone but simply to protect myself and to stand up for myself. I don’t want any sympathy from anyone but i will sincerely appreciate it if people do not try to take away my dignity in the process of my fight for respect at my workplace. I think after all these years i deserve it and I’m not asking for too much.

Come India, Let’s All Hate Arvind Kejriwal: Puns And Roses
Funny country, ours is. We love to hate. We are so fed up of our own miserable problems and pathetic administration that we just need a media-created effigy to direct our hatred and burn. Beyond logic. Beyond rationale. Beyond the levels of tolerance and sophistication that one can expect from a country that boasts itself as the world’s largest democracy.
The hate for AK started last year when he resigned as CM of Delhi within 49 days of being voted the majority government. Yes, he betrayed the trusArvind-Kejriwal-2014-Picturest of Delhi, and the whole country, the eyes of which were constantly upon him. The disappointment turned to hate and we coined terms like Farjiwal, Fekriwal, Bhagoda and some of our trademarked Hindi swear words which never cease to evolve every-time they’re mentioned. In more ways than not, justified.
All he asked for this week was forgiveness and another chance. He apologized to the people of Delhi, and India. He conceded his mistake and inexperience. Gave his reasoning, and came out pleading for a chance to make things right.
And what do we do?? We lambaste him on social media, accusing him of dramatics, calling him all sorts of things, talking about flogging him publicly and what not! Not to mention his supporters being called AAP-tards and baboons (which, thankfully, is not racist in India).
Nobody wanted to touch AK before the elections. He came out and blasted the most influential people in India for corruption and money laundering, and nobody had the balls to do anything more than denying and reverse accusing him on the news. But now that BJP has swept off the elections, Nitin Gadkari comes along and files a defamation suit. Amazing things power does to people.
Kejriwal, sent to judicial custody, refused to pay the bail/bond amount of Rs. 10,000 and said that he’d defend himself in court. Why do we accuse him of being above the law? Any defendant has the right to not pay the bail money. It’s an option, not a law. And he said he’d defend his stand in his court hearing. He’s not answerable to the pedestrian unappreciative masses on social media. Wake up and see sense, people. Hating him won’t get you anything.
Back in 2011, he went to jail for similar charges. Back then, he was just an activist, not a political leader. It was easy to pick on him. He didn’t pay the bail even then. He was seen as a hero back then. Why wasn’t that perceived as above the law? Our very own national hero, Mahatma Gandhi, was sent to jail by the British. He was offered bail for as little as 1 Rupee, but, he still declined.
We reelect criminals to parliament. People with blatant corruption charges, people who have more black money than most people earn legitimately their whole life, rapists, uneducated, worthless ministers. Everyone is forgiven and voted back to parliament.
Why not Arvind Kejriwal? A clean record, a degree from India’s premiere technology institute and so many more qualifications that could bring the more than half of the current parliament to shame… and most of all, clean intentions a good heart.
I don’t expect this article to be received well by most of you. I’m probably just another AAP-tard baboon on your timelines. Your hate for Congress and AAP has blinded you too much to read or hear anything against anyone remotely related to BJP, let alone trying to look at it objectively.
But, to those who see sense like me, I hope you’re in Delhi. Give him another chance. He’s a good man.

I am an ardent AAP supporter, and I accept the mandate that BJP has won, I congratulate them over such spectacular win, but what bothers me is, BJP supporters are celebrating AAP's loss more than BJP's win! Its all over my timeline, AAP this, AAP that, Kejriwal this and that.. Blah blah!
It puts me in a spot as to what were you really vying for, AAP's loss or BJP's win? And if you say both or the former, stop allegating others over being cynical! Showing somebody weak does not make you stronger, we AAP supporters have accepted the mandate and respect it, have congratulated BJP/ Modi/ its supporters openly, why not show some chivalry and celebrate your win, rather than celebrating somebody's loss? If you still believe mocking gives you happiness, go ahead! :) Good Luck!
India has its new PM, and AAP, here's what you could do!
First and foremost, a very many Congratulations to Mr Narendra Modi on winning the Loksabha elections and therefore being crowned as the next PM of India. A good change is all we wish, a better India is all we dream about, and if he succeeds in delivering his promises, we shall all rejoice!
Here is one advice I would like to give to this new PM's supporters and fans that, please, for Heaven's sake, STOP ABUSING! Now that you've won and your leader is about to fulfill his dreams, why don't you just lay back and enjoy your success than mocking around? Do not forget that people of India are still watching and he is yet to deliver his potentials, a bit of calmness and sensibility would be a pie over the cake!
A very dedicated AAP volunteer and member Abhishek Vissapragada has something to say over AAP's role in the next few months!
Now that the election season is over, we must together think of AAP's future & how it can sustain the revolution. Assembly elections for Maharashtra, Bihar & Haryana are coming close by. This election season we saw many ideas that were beneficial for AAP. But we also saw AAP face many problems in terms of organisation structure & conveyance of message. Here are some of my suggestions:
1. For candidate selection, although they can take the criteria of who has more chances of winning, but they should also allow volunteers of a particular constituency to give their vote as to whom they would like to promote! Also they should ask probable candidates as to how they will campaign & gain support from people which could also decide whether the probable candidate can turn into a strong leader!
2. The call campaign for Kumar Vishwas & Arvind Kejriwal should also have been extended to other candidates, especially for people who don't have much of presence in their constituency(according to their political analysis) which would help them in further campaigns!
3. The amount that the party recieves from donations being recorded & tracked is a good initiative. But they should now take a step further & give details of which candidate is recieving how much money & where it is being spent. Bills & copies should be scanned & published in their site.
4. Each candidate should first introduce themselves & speak about his/her past work. Then they should speak about what work they will do & what efforts they will take to implement it & policies of the party. They should have a thorough knowledge about the constituency & share that with ppl(which will help ppl be aware if they face problems in future) Then they can go down with taking potshots on other politicians. This was a problem I felt that needed to be addressed as the speeches were getting redundant.
5. The spokespersons & media representatives of the party should have more training & knowledge about the party's activities as I felt that in many debates they didn't defend the party properly & could have had a upper hand in these debates but did not take advantage of it.(Yes the media was being biased but the representatives could have defended the party much more better & exposed factual truths!)
6. All the volunteers should be given a record of the Party's work(Like the Delhi government work) thus helping them in informing voters about what all the party has done. Most of the people who were also there in the audience debate like in The Election Express programs didn't talk about the work done by AAP in Delhi when accusations were put up by the media person themselves who seem to have a short term memory loss! So in future its necessary that all volunteers have a record of party's work.
7. Party could also take efforts in informing citizens who gave suggestions for manifesto as to whether their suggestion was added or not & why it was done as it is.
Debatable: Now that most volunteers won't have as much party work in some time after Assembly elections, they could become vigilant citizens & informers for the party as to the state of the country with issues related to various problems that we face day to day. That way we will get news as to what is happening in the country & the party members can take up these issues at ground level to keep us informed. Indirectly it will help in making the country more vigilant although it may have a political flavor since a party is revealing the facts of this situation. Any more suggestions is welcome & if you don't agree with my views I will be glad to have a debate on it.
You think you have better suggestions? Respond below and let us know!
Aam Aadmi Party feat. Actor Abhay Raichand. He is an avid AAPtivist, and has performed several nukkad nataks for AAP in Mumbai. Spare a little time to watch this one! ☺ SPREAD!
That awesome moment on a shoot when an entire unit (including director) stands and claps for your solo one take long monologue shot! Woohoo! #ProudGirl BLESSED! #MaujFashionWear
A documentary on Arvind Kejriwal and some unknown facts about him, well, its a choice here, if you would like to see the video or not, believe it or not, because the content in the video is something that no one can ever imagine being done, in the 21st century! A selfless man, some may call power hungry, to defend the fact, that if anybody is not hungry to work over the state of the country, how will the country survive? And to let the country survive, be it in safe hands, or foxy ones (some like these are considered safe these days) agree or don't, YOU NEED THE POWER. And wait, if the man has already done so much for people, I would say, every man like him should be power hungry! Please stress on the words "LIKE HIM".
Does not matter if you are a NaMo fan, a Kejriwal fan or RaGa fan (sorry for this one), you cannot deny the fact that this man has got all the balls in the world to do whatever it takes for the country, without a second thought about threats to life. And why not, if a man is willing to quit his quintessential post for the people (which could have been so easy only for him in the entire existing World), caring about what anyone does or says is entirely a different thought from a different planet for him.
Having said all that, hope a few have already voted (constituencies where voting has been conducted), posted your selfies on various networking sites, and felt proud (yes I did vote too, for the first time in my life and felt like I had won the Miss India crown, not kidding, meaning, I'd never felt so proud of myself, and ahaan.. I posted Felfie, four of my family members 'including me' in the picture, isn't that called felfie? No? Oh sorry!). If you did not vote despite being able to, may a huge elephant pee on you! Blah!
What do you think of Arvind Kejriwal's resignation? Lets have a look at two sides of this coin!
by Krunal M Harne
Disclaimer : I'm neither Anti-AAP, nor am I a die hard AAP supporter. I have tried my best putting forward an unbiased political opinion.
These are the views of congress. Obvious, right? But isn't that what a few of us are thinking right now?
But wait! As I said, there are two sides to every coin.
What drove him to take the decision? It was obviously not an individual's decision. It shouldn't be. Clever political moves are and should be well thought. Let's talk about the political correctness from Kejriwal's perspective.
He formed a party and defeated giants like Shiela Dixit to end the 15 years long Congress rule. Let's not underestimate the political shrewdness of this man in the disguise of Aam aadmi, a smart man with a simple white topi and a muffler, who doesn't use any hi-fi words. Most of us feel like he's one among us, not like those rich, fat-bellied politicians who chatter in a nonsensical cryptic language.
People in developing countries are not process oriented, they are result oriented.
People were happy when they got free water, hardly anyone questioned, where did it come from? People were happy when the electricity rates were cut down, a very few bothered to question, how? When he said in a public conference that he filed an FIR against Ambani, people said this guy has guts, nobody asked, what next?
Now, if we just look at the overall results, AAP government gave us in 49 days, they're truly remarkable! As a common voter, with these results, just the results, no matter how feasible they're in long term, the equation looks pretty simple to me -
IF
49 days = Free Water + Cheap electricity + Anti-corruption helpline + Dharna against police + FIR Against Shiela Dixit + FIR Against Ambani + <Add-a-few-more>
THEN
5 years = ??
And this is just Delhi, just one small state! Now try to expand this equation for the biggest democracy in the world with ~1.2 Billion people with the constitution that provides unmatched flexibility at every level.
AAP has been very successful in connecting with the people, the Aam aadmi of India. And we Indians are emotional people.
Frankly speaking, if I'm a person from a middle class family, I'll be happy if I can buy onions 10 Rs cheaper than usual, if I get free water, if I get cheap electricity, if my sister/daughter/mother is safe while travelling in the night or say, if the roads around me are in a good condition. Even the simple things like this weren't provided by the governments before, which resulted into lowering the bars of our expectations. What AAP gave us was more than satisfactory.
Honestly speaking, this is an emotional attachment of a kind. Still gives me goosebumps to think 'The man who was brutally beaten up by Delhi police a few days before, now goes on to become the Chief minister of Delhi'. Samay samay ki baat hai bhai. Just a matter of time isn't it?
Here is the brief overview of action items implemented by the so called short-lived AAP Government within 49 days after coming into power.
Dec 29 : Delhi Jal Board chief transferred.
Dec 30 : 700 litres of free water announced for households with regular water connection.
Dec 31 : 50% power subsidy for those consuming up to 400 units.
Jan 1 : CAG audit of power discoms ordered.
Jan 5 : AAP volunteers take rounds of government hospitals to take stock of facilities.
Jan 6 : L-G backs CAG audit.
Jan 7 : Nursery admission helpline announced.
Jan 8 : Infrastructure audit of government schools started.
Jan 8 : Anti-corruption help line announced, launched on Jan 13.
Jan 10 : Helpline to report power cuts.
Jan 31 : Govt threatens to cancel discom licences over outages.
Feb 3 : DERC asked to cancel licences of discoms.
Feb 6 : Fresh probe in Commomwealth Games’ street light project.
Feb 7 : Probe into financial irregularities in construction of Salimgarh Bypass.
Feb 10 : Probe in three DJB ‘scams’.
And as we all know, after the most happening one and a half months of governance they finally quit!
It was always a win-win situation for AAP and Kejriwal. If he were successful in passing the Jan Lokpal, we would have called him a hero. If he weren't, we could continue blaming BJP and Congress for not supporting him. Also, not fully supporting AAP for Jan Lokpal was the best thing BJP and Congress could do at this moment. Facing the criticism was always better than a few of their ministers going to jails just before the Lok sabha elections.
On the other hand, congress was always playing safe. Even if AAP was secretly hoping congress to withdraw the support, which they never did, even after Kejriwal went to an extent of filing FIRs against their leaders and accusing them of corruption.
Finally, Jan Lokpal wasn't passed. Kejriwal was left with no better rational reason for his resignation than Jan Lokpal.
What image of congress and BJP does this portray in front of the country?
First of all, 1% of those people who kept saying that AAP is the B-team of congress are proven wrong.
AAP is repeatedly portraying to the media that Both BJP and congress are opposing the Jan Lokpal which is the best solution over corruption and apparently 90% of the country's problems, indirectly saying that given a chance at centre, AAP can successfully bring the Jan Lokpal.
A picture that says it all -
Target : LS Elections -
Look at the timing of this decision! Had he resigned 10 days before, people would definitely have called him an anarchist.
Look at the series of events - first, some kickass decisions delivering their promises on water and electricity, filing FIRs against giants of congress, involving the biggest bureaucrats and alleging them for funding both the parties and then playing the political martyr. Well played indeed!
Thirdly, since Delhi is no longer their concern, it will give AAP ample time to focus on Lok Sabha elections while there will most probably be governor's rule in Delhi until LS elections and Delhi elections will mostly be carried out in parallel.
By any chance, if BJP forms government in Delhi, it'll be difficult for them to carry forward the decisions taken by AAP like free water, discounted electricity etc as they are not feasible in long term. It's a well set trap!
If AAP forms government in Delhi again, they'll always come up with ways of either getting the bill reduced by auditing the discoms and restricting water mafia or logical excuses to moderate the decisions taken by them which were infeasible in long run. Think about the outrage that will be caused if BJP fails to deliver even the basic things from AAP's agenda.
The 49 days v/s 5 years equation is powerful enough to bring about a wave that can very well give hard time to both the parties in the upcoming LS equations.
I would be a little brave and say, forming a government at centre is out of question for AAP, as of now! But they could very well be a deciding factor in the LS elections even if they target 70 odd seats. After all, before the Delhi elections. nobody expected them to come in power, but they did. So it's too early to comment anything. Due to involvement of AAP in centre, many of us are now afraid of the Khichdi government.
But yes, at this stage, with the time and resources he has, this is the best Kejriwal could have done. This is called optimization! A well planned, thoughtful and shrewd, morally arguable yet politically right decision.
Myth No 1: AAP is weak.
Truth: There is very strong under current in favor of Aam Aadmi Party. The supporters and leaders of AAP are eminent and respected social activists, doctors, professors, and true Indian thinkers. After an overwhelming response in the Delhi assembly elections, Aam Aadmi Party is confident that the party has a strong chance of winning more than 100 seats in the Lok Sabha Elections 2014.
Aam Aadmi Party is the first ever Indian political party who dared to speak against Indian corporate, can go to any extent for the privileges of ‘Aam Aadmi’, committed to its words, and determined to remove corruption in the country.
Arvind Kejriwal defeated the three-time chief minister of Delhi, Sheila Dikshit, and became the seventh CM of Delhi. Arvind Kejriwal is almost ready to contest against Narendra Modi.
Can a weak party leader make such an impact in a short span of time.?
