Arvind Kejriwal Another Vijayakanth?

Kejriwal has captured more seats in a year than the maverick Vijayakanth, Tamil Actor turned Politician of Tamil Nadu, in terms of the time frame to secure this much seats in an Assembly elections.

Vijayakanth started off in a high note and idealism, but is marred by his Drinking Habits and unruly behaviour in Public, like beating his Election candidate in full Public view.

Add this to the Regional politics of Tamil Nadu, where the DMK and the AIADMK hold the masses by sheer communication skills and money power.

Kejriwal too ha started in a high note but faltered when he started accusing people in Pres Meets and his huffing and hawing to reply about the mismanagement of funds.

Running for elections need money and one has to take funds from others, mainly from corporate.

And we have entrenched parties , built over years consisting of corrupt politicians and more importantly their off spring and clan who wield spheres of influence.

Add to this the bureaucracy , which has an interest in promoting wither the ruling party or the opposition which has been there for quite some years to aid abet their ways of corruption.

Not to forget the fears fueled by Secularism, Religious non sense,regional and linguistic pressures and the well entrenched caste vote bank politics nurtured by the parties since independence.

Kejriwal and Vijayakanth, though well-meaning seem to forget these ground realities.

Even if they did they can no less about it.

Vijayakanth, as Kejriwall of now resisted the alliance with the established parties, which are corrupt and are hated by people.
