AAP'S VICTORY

To  comment  about  AAP'  election   victory  is like  carrying  coal  to New Castle,or in Malayalam,

'' കൊല്ലക്കുടിയിൽ    സൂചി  വിൽക്കുക '',because  much has been  discussed  about it.

 

AAP's  victory  is  similar  to  some  spectacular  performances in sports,like Bob Beeymon's  Long

Jump record in the 1968  Mexico  Olymics, Nadia Comenecci's  perfect 10 in Gymnastics in 1976, 

and  the record-breaking  sprint  doubles in recent years,of Michael  Johnson and  Ussain Bolt.

Clean   sweeps  such as  AAP's victory  is  often  seen  in countries  under one-party, authoritarian

regimes  as in North Korea, China,Syria etc, where the ruling party or the dictator gets a 100% victory in stage-managed,farcical  elections. In such countries, the parliament is a rubber stamp

in the firm grip of the dictator.

The landslide victory  has laid a heavy  burden on the shoulders of  Kejarival  and AAP. After

5 years, when they  face the electorate,will they get  70 out of 70?  This is the big challenge

for  AAP in the five years ahead.

This  election  proves beyond  any doubt that  the people of India  aren't   followers of any 

political  parties  or leaders. The people no longer believe in empty promises. When they 

become disillusioned  with  political  parties and leaders, they punish them mercilessly,brutally.

In the next  5 years, Kejariwal   should live in fear of the people, because if he fails to deliver,

he will  be punished by the same people who gave him a massive mandate. This is a  very positive

aspect of  Indian  democracy.

In a Kerala perspective, all the major political parties are red-nosed.The humiliation is shocking.

The AAP  victory has unleashed a tsunami  of jokes  ridiculing the Congress, BJP, CPM etc.

Malayalees  aren't  easily  impressed by cartoons and  jokes ( മസ്സിൽ  പിടുത്തം ), but 

this  time ,the laughter is spontaneous! For eg,the jokes using പൂജ്യം . Thanks  to  all 

cartoonists  and  individuals  for  relieving  me  from  മസ്സിൽ പിടുത്തം .
