101 blog - "OUTBURST OF A COMMON MAN"

 
#### Outburst of a Common Man ####
During this write up and when I penned down; I ne'er deliberate to compose anything by safekeeping Mr. Arvind Kejriwal and the well-thought “AAM AADMI PARTYin my cognition. Mr. Arvind is an IITian and a former Joint Commissioner and undoubtedly he can choose a life and can pick out any option he coveted for. Indeed, far amended than this atrocious one. On the left side maybe realizing the magnitude of corruption and dirt in a well respected land “India”, he and his team opt a very antithetic living. While, why I don't make a write up by keeping him and his team in my mind is depending on our own perception about the words we listen, we read and we thought. It depends person to person and perception changing is a pugnacious and a little crawling process – it is time consuming.
I hope the enthusiasm of Mr. Arvind and his team will stay same forever and will reach up to new heights to carry through the mission which is why it all kickoff. And, I hope and I sincerely want that all the floating rumors will be ambit to be end very soon and I'd like to feel very happy to pen down composing a few words on those attributes. Many congratulates for a smashing debut triumph in assembly elections and all the good luck for future endeavor!
When I think the word “Common” I found the word is very powerful in itself; not because a living thing merely state a line “I am a common X”. While, the powerfulness of word “COMMON” lies in its own glory of its own being, that is why the word is of very importance. The other reason of this glory can express in a well said proverb - “The most simple things in the world are the most extraordinary and only a wise man can see them.”
Whenever I witness my country or perceive the world with a view, a question always feats in my nous “Who is really a common man?”. And when I visage to search an answer I found uncountable explanation. Is he the silent elderly man with a wisp of white hair, dressed in dhoti and jacket ( like the creation of Indian cartoonist R.K.Laxman) ?” Or is he the miserable farmer in the movie “Peepli Live ?” or are those Indian nomad who move here and there in search to fulfill their own quench of life?” or are those who suffer thoroughly because they're quarantined by man-made concepts of caste, and sex, and survival ?” or are those who tones stress sitting in their well-suited corporate attires?” or those who do not have enough cloths to wear.?.” The distinctness of this word is very profound and multifaceted according to people – from the point of view to observe – from the point of view to thought – from the point of way to explain.
In terms of Politicians each have their own definition – In the words of Rahul Gandhi, “the common man in India is that person who does not have a connection to the system, whether he is a poor or a rich, belongs to any caste and gender, educated or uneducated, if he is not connected to the system, he is a common man.” Is it true.? On other side, “a senior member of the CPI, defines the common man as “those who are below the poverty line. In India, common men are peasants, agricultural laborers and middle class who all constitute over 85% of the country’s population.” Is it also true ? The phrase “COMMON MAN” has wide political currency in India, with parties across the political spectrum using it, and it will likely be uttered many times. But who exactly is the common man the question still remains as same ?”
Mr. Laxman once said of his common man creation , "I would say he symbolizes the mute millions of India, or perhaps the whole world, a silent spectator of marching time."
And in my opinion the definition of a common man should be like - :
“Most of us are common man and most of us would agree that being a common man is not a very small deal. A common man symbolizes freedom and to be live freely in free world. It is who influences its surroundings, society and culture although over time. Maybe due to unexplainable reasons a common man forgot its power to change the world but still he's one who is making or can make a difference. Over time, the common man has always represented hopes, aspirations, troubles and perhaps even foibles for all world.”
Not long ago, when confronted on a news channel one of the popular leader commented “People have elected us and we are doing what is right for them”. The meaning clearly was, “We are in power and we will do what we want to”. After that common man came to streets, protested for a law, transparency and value but was again thrown back and told that if you want to make laws then go fight elections and come elected.
Now it seems that common man has emerged back to from being suffered to bring suffering to those who think power is at their feet and they can do what they want. Really time has come when the common man has put his anger into the ballot box and told those power laden politicians that everybody has a right to ask and anybody can fight back to get his right. It is a pity that after close to seventy years of independence, democracy has to be explained to the parties by the common man again in a democratic country. The message is clear that our country will not be controlled by a dynasty or a person specific being nominated for PM.
The people who fought and emerged as a winner conveys a very clear message that in this era of globalization a common man needs to take more responsibility because he is one who can teach lessons to corrupt people, can eradicate poverty, can bring peace and harmony and can ensure a better world. And, Delhi assembly polls clearly show that a common man can outburst his anger, can how his will and fight to show the way even to the most powerful people in the country. I think this will make everybody understand that in democracy position is not permanent and only image is. I hope new people would also keep this in mind for future and will not deviate from their path.
The very known reason Why INA lost is.? - its poor governance, inability to control inflation, inability to maintain law and order, huge corruption scandals and playing conspicuously divisive politics whenever it tried to do something. These things can't be corrected in short time. It'll always take time. Now, they are pushed till the next elections. While, the Indians positioned a straight message to INA - Please ask Sonia to take her Italian Secularism with her. And also it is proven that how a single word “COMMON” at a very good time right up to its highest level. All these years, the Cong has remained arrogant and unconcerned about the common man, they always toed the line of the poor but did nothing for them either despite being voted into power. Now after getting a FAT KICK IN THE BACK, they all heard a message in the very known voice of the common man, how they all be trusted ?
Two timeless quotes which will remain relevant till life blossoms on the earth:

Whatever you do will be insignificant, but it is very important that you do it. - Mahatma Gandhi

Society does not go down because of the activities of criminals but because of the in-activities of the good people - Swami Vivekananda

Its a time in India for a second independence fight from inefficient, corrupt and dictatorial government. All the politicians seems failed and bankrupt with ideas, and there own liability. I am hoping the people of India will stop idolizing worship of those leaders; who brought down this once beautiful nation in the eyes of a common man, and India in the eyes of the world & hopefully opposition will rise up to restore the faith of the common man again.
My wishes to the common man for his success in true essence of democracy. He has been left behind in every manner and in every sense. Its a time to change. There are many way to make a difference. Here is one of those way to make difference to society and the whole message embedded in below four lines -::
हर एक बौना मेरे क़द को नापता है यहाँ ,
मैं सारे शहर से उलझूँ मेरे इलाही क्या ?
समय के एक तमाचे की देर है प्यारे!
मेरी फ़क़ीरी भी क्या?तेरी बादशाही क्या? ----- (तुफैल चतुर्वेदी)

Cheers!
Dhitendra
Keep Smiling :-)
