An Uncanny Common Man


    A man who believes in the dictum that 'Change begins with small things' and has the conviction to practice what he preaches. A thought that he strongly believed in became a nation wide movement to sweep off corruption with his broom. Miracles do not happen in real life and Arvind Kejriwal rightfully is the epitome of sheer hard work, dedication and self-belief. His plane is on a take-off mode and is all set to meet great altitudes of goodness and success.
    Prestigious Ramon Magsaysay award is credited to him for his emerging leadership and commendable contribution in enactment of the RTI Act. In his early career,an IIT Kharagpur alumnus, Kejriwal was placed in TATA steel. But the man, had a greater vision to serve the nation. Later he joined Indian Revenue Services after clearing his civil services examination in first attempt. His constant encounters with corrupt individuals led him to form his own NGO called Parivartan, synonymous to his dictum. His NGO was focused on assisting citizens in navigating income tax, electricity and food ration matters. Thereafter, his movement became larger than life along with Mr Hazare called the Jan Lokpal Bill Revolution. To clean a room, one needs to enter in first, hence, the Aam Admi Party was formed.
    Redefinition of an ideal politician is grounded, humble and down to earth, thanks to this man.  Innovation is incomplete without implementation. Branding his party as a people's close aid and himself as a benevolent leader is irreproachable. Truth always triumphs and he has vociferously taken on the 'unreachable' big shots which adds credibility to his claims.
   Known to be a socialist and daring, he is capable of shaking well dug in chairs. 'Mr Cool' doesn't falter or loose his mind which indicates the maturity this 7th Chief Minister of Delhi possesses. Often classified as a 'dramatic' orator, he can bring life and emotions to his words, which is his strongest connect with the 'janta'. Certainly, his aura speaks for itself and does not require him to pontificate. Within a short span of time, he has emanated as a real threat to veteran political stars.
    It's easier said than done. No individual without a strong will and intent, I repeat, intent can muster every ounce of inner strength to be able to bear the brunt of brutal Delhi's cold. Why should the first man of the National capital settle for any mediocrity in lifestyle? Certainly, because if it wasn't for these so-called  'shenanigans' , it wouldn't make an iota of difference to the threats of democracy. Maybe, it wasn't the best foot forward but the intentions are the real deal.
    This AK-49 can prove to be a guardian of nation's integrity and righteousness. Albeit, his resignation has changed the mood among many supporters who feel led down, but he is up to the greater good. His led party was in the hanging as they did meet the majority and functioning under grace of INC was merely suffocating. However, to the contrary the city that entrusted him was seeking his experience to come handy and to prove his motives. Nevertheless, everyone deserves a second chance.
    Being ambitious and not settling for something that is not the best defines him in the truest sense. His altruistic ideology reinforces empowerment of the 'aam admi' that he still proudly recognizes himself as. India needs a leader who is for the people, to the people and by the people. This self-made uncanny common man is set out for the sky and surely deserves a chance to lead India into a 'Corruption-Free' nation.
