Have no illusions about Arvind Kejriwal

Hi Sir,
I guess I agree with most of your posts. So just want to ask you what is your opinion about Arvind Kejriwal? And if you agree that he is an anti-corruption crusader doing something good for our country then would you like to join this fight against corruption?

This was my reply :

You are mistaken about Kejriwal. He has by now become a seasoned politician,  like all other of our crafty politicians. He will not really fight against corruption, but only give a show of fighting against it. He is not a fool. He knows that corruption is so deeply entrenched in India that whoever genuinely and sincerely fights against it will be eliminated by the Indian mafia ( which includes politicians, big businessmen, land and building mafia, etc ). He has no desire to commit hara kiri, and will do everything to stick to his chair, like all politicians.

 So he will only pay lip service to fighting corruption by suspending some clerks etc, while not seriously attacking the big sharks, though he will make a pretence of doing so, e.g. his statements against Ambani, Adani, etc which were mere statements. After all, words break no bones.

  1. Dear Mr. Katju,

    There are a number of reasons why I do not agree with you on this -

    1. The work done at the ground level in Delhi is way ahead of other states and other folks who keep shouting from their rooftops about governance

    2. Why is the congress and the BJP totally against giving control of ACB to the Delhi government, then we can really judge what AKs intentions are, till that happens, your judgement holds no water.

    Infact to test the validity of your judgement you should fight to ensure the Delhi government gets control of the ACB and the police dept., then we can really judge Mr. Kejriwal.
