The great show of the great Indian democracy is on. Every one is waiting for the conclusion. Every one is curious about the end. Will it be a happy ending or a tragic ending ?As we know the three scenes are done and all of us are waiting for 16th May, when finally this play will come to an end and the mystery of 15th Loksabha will be solved.
At the same time another drama is going on in South Africa by the name of Indian Premier League. There was a time when South Africa used to remind us about Mahatma Gandhi, but in this summer it is being remembered as the country where IPL is being held as the first play took the stage because of security reasons. Most of us are watching this play live on our television set. The mystery of this drama, will be solved on 24th at 8038.34 kms away from Delhi in Johannesburg.
Now consider the situation in India....these two plays are keeping the whole Indian public, in terms of Indian politicians, AAM ADAMI (common-man) busy. Everyone is reading,discussing,forecasting..in short is trying to solve the mysteries. But we all know mysteries can't be solved like this. The ends will show us who have won and who is going to get the titles.
Consider, if we ask someone, in these two plays which is more important? Which needs more importance and thought than the other? Most of us think that the answer should be elections.
But something surprises me. Although most of us will answer for election but I am not seeing the same in reality. In my campus I am surprised to see the situation. I am a seeing everyone, talking about IPL and analyzing each and every part of the game. But election, I don't think anyone is even bothered to think about that. For them it's a dirty Indian politics from which they should be as far as they can. They can curse Arjun Singh for his new-new methods to destroy education system but when it comes to election, they are not going to even think, who is going to win.
I remember a line from Ramcharitmanas 'कोऊ नृप होऊ हमहीं का हानी, चेरि छाडी अब होब की रानी. (Whoever may be the ruler, I lose nothing thereby; for shall I cease to be servant and become a queen now?)'. It was said by Manthara to Kaikayi when she was persuading for exile of Rama. Now the same line I think is being said by most of intellectual janta in the country. I would say as this line cuased the suffering for whole Ayodhya, I think if this attitude our intellectual Junta continues, our democracy and democratic systems are going to fall and no one will be able to save them.
