UNLIKE BEFORE, #ARVIND KEJRIWAL ADDRESSED NE's (NATIONAL EXECUTIVE) GATHERING WITH THE ATTITUDE OF SELF PRAISE & "#MY WAY OR HIGHWAY" THE MESSAGE IS LOUD AND CLEAR TO THE WORLD THAT NO VOICE WOULD BE TOLERATED IF IT CHALLENGED THE SUPREMACY OF ARVIND KEJRIWAL.
If you may recall after Shazia left Aap, Arvind Kejriwal had said in his media byte that no important leader have left the party but the very leader on 28th March, 2015 in NE (national executive's meeting) chops off the senior leaders mercilessly like a ruthless Dictator to keep his superiority intact and not realizing at all the adverse impact it would have on his party.
I have been in two minds to write this post & I have no qualm to accept the fact that I had to struggle a lot with my conscience before typing my sense of perception here because for the first time I am questioning the leadership qualities of a leader who has always been the hero of my admiration. With the historic mandate on his side, Arvind seems to be galloping high on the horses of the victory to a condemn-able direction I could never even fancy in my dreams that he would venture out to kill the core spirit & fabric of the party.
To be honest, Arvind's integrity can not be doubted and questioned till today. Alas, Arvind doesn't look in his element presently at all and he seems to be losing leadership talent rapidly under the fallacious influence of certain people around him. It appears his own close party members are misguiding him to a wrong direction that would annihilate his and party's intact image.
The brutal fact cannot be overlooked that Arvind kejriwal and his close-knit coterie had always demanded transparency vociferously in the functioning of other political parties but in this most unfortunate specially pre-scripted National executive's meeting of AAP transparency & spirit of the party was crucified mercilessly by all these very people by their own hands.
Look at how intelligently these high profile intellectuals of AAP denied transparency only to achieve their ulterior goals of kicking out the MOST RESPECTED AND FOUNDING MEMBERS of Aam Aadmi Party unceremoniously. A day before, in a sting operation conducted by #Umesh Singh, Arvind Kejriwal had been caught using offensive language, "rascals like Prashant Bhushan & Yogendra Yadav would have been booted out instantly had they been in some other party." And surprisingly he accorded the same treatment to them with unwarranted expulsions from powerful National executive's body unilaterally without giving them a chance to be heard.
There was no judge, no hearing at all of two sides, direct blackmail that either them or him. What a sickening example of mockery of democracy! In a quick response to what happened at the meeting, veteran social activist, #Medha Patkar, resigned from the the party condemning their action as insult & unfair treatment. This seemingly undemocratic & violence-laced meeting and the ouster of important members of the party would always remain an irreparable & dirtiest blot on AAP for good.
Before the entry at the venue of meeting, the people were frisked from top to down with a fear of possible sting and were asked to leave their pens, mobiles and stuffs outside. Let's all remember the times when Aap was motivating the people to conduct sting operations and now they themselves were fearful of sting ops because recently a sting of Arvind kejriwal using foul language has already started undermining the pure image of this leader and AAP.
This interview of Prashant Bhushan reflects how AAP is straying away from the values & core principles of the party and would soon turn out to be like other high command culture parties.

After this infamous national council's meeting, this latest survey shows how rapidly Arvind Kejriwal & his close team are losing leadership qualities and popularity in the eyes of Delhi people.
BEING THE WELL-WISHER OF THIS PARTY, A DAY BEFORE THE MEETING, I HAD TO WRITE A LETTER OF CONCERN TO THE TOP RUNG LEADERS OF AAM AADMI PARTY WITH A STRONG BELIEF THAT THEY WOULD PAY SOME ATTENTION TO MY REQUEST AND THE IMPORTANT MESSAGE MENTIONED IN IT BUT IT SEEMS THEY ALL IGNORED IT WITH THE REASONS ONLY KNOWN TO THEM. I AM PUBLISHING MY LETTER TO SHOW MY EXPRESS MY RESENTMENT THAT I WROTE TO THEM A DAY BEFORE THE NATIONAL EXECUTIVE'S MEETING.
THE BODY OF MY LETTER THAT I WROTE TO THEM:
Dear sir,

THE DETRIMENTAL IMPACT ON AAP IS VISIBLE NOW |
THEIR UNDEMOCRATIC ACTION IS LEADING TO SELF-DESTRUCTION |
IT IS UNFORTUNATE THAT WHAT I COULD EASILY SEE THEY COULD NOT SEE |
THE BODY OF MY LETTER THAT I WROTE TO THEM:
SUB: AAP is doubtlessly sitting on LANDMINE facing this factionalism within the party
Dear sir,
I am an ardent follower of AAP and a volunteer from Mumbai and I have been promoting AAP aggressively through my blog, RAISE YOUR VOICE for a long long time because this is the only party that has all the substance to enliven hope for the betterment of this country..
It is a matter of huge disgrace to me and for all of us that AAP that comprises of several intellectuals has not been able to sort out the current crisis with in the party forum for past fortnight. what I saw in the interview of Yogendra Yadav ji and Prashant Bhushan ji today caused a great pain to me.
Later when I heard the audio tape of Arvind ji and Mr Umesh's conversation that broke my heart in pieces and wetted my eyes. I could never ever imagine even in my dreams that Arvind ji could use such an offensive language for Prashant ji and Yogendra ji. Even if I believe for a moment they were involved in anti-party activities I would never expect that Arvind ji should use such foul words even for his enemies. Their contribution during revolution can never be ignored. This venomous conversation smacks of nothing but vicious vanity. I would say, it is self contradictory language and statement of Arvind ji for when after winning Delhi he had said, BJP was crushed due to its sheer arrogance. Now who is crushing AAP? These revelation of inside bickering is killing AAP day by day. Arvind ji, being the leader of AAP should have taken every body in his fold because that is the quality of a true leader but it is beyond my comprehension as to why he is behaving so strangely after attaining Delhi Power. He should not forget the historic fact that he is the only leader of this country who got such a overwhelming mandate that left no place for opposition and that happens only when the leader creates profound trust and confidence in the eyes of the voters. one fatal mistake is enough to wash away all our achievement.
It is surprising he is keeping himself away and not facing this situation the way he should have tackled as a leader of AAP. Are we so low and narrow-minded that we are undermining the national interests hurting each other so openly with swords and knives in our hands. Arvind ji could have contained easily this disastrous situation meeting them face to face after he arrived from Bangalore.
What message are we giving to this nation? Are we trying to cremate AAP the only hope of this nation with our own hands? The entire horrible episode suggests amply that Arvind ji is surrounded by some elements who never wanted PATCH UP to take place which is very very essential for the political health of AAP and this nation.
The question that raised instantly in my mind was, Is this the party I have been looking up to with so much respect & great hope? Is this the political alternative we were all looking up to? Is this the party we are imagining to spread across nation?
The Crores of Indians like me believe in Arvind ji's leadership but I was devastated to learn today that he wanted to form the govt with the support of Congress. what happened to the values we were talking about and teaching other parties day in day out? Where are all those fair political principle and values we were teaching to the other political parties of this nation?
Even today, If Arvind ji takes a sound decision rising above all these petty quarrels of the party as a leader stepping out of his new image of a dictator, every thing would fall in its place the way it was and people would forget all these differences, discord and disagreement. It is up to us to open our eyes before it is too late or else our poor sense of perception would self-immolate the dreams of crores of Indians there and then. Our one single mistake can sound death knoll for all of us.
It would be wise to salvage this party at any cost even if the reconciliation is the only way out or else this dangerously volatile situation would explode to such an extent that the trust and confidence that we have achieved so far would be buried for good. Lets bury our hatchets and differences for this nation and embrace each other. We must not forget a great virtue of forgiveness.
Please do not provide the opportunity to the opposition to attack us & demolish AAP. It is not the party of a few people any longer but it belongs to the entire nation now because it rose out of a great revolution.

with best wishes,
