AAP. The most sincere political party in India.
AAP's the most sincere political party in India currently and there's no doubt about that.
As Mr. Narayanmurthy acknowledged, Arvind Kejriwal has redefined what is possible.
AK was one of the main persons behind success of Delhi India against corruption campaigns in the leadership of Anna Hazare. He along with other IAC members launched AAP just one year back. AAP fought Delhi elections with just about 20 Crores. This is small amount (not even 5% of budgets of BJP & Congress). AAP won 28/70 seats in it's first elections, which is commendable.
What he promised, he can do only with full majority. That he will get if re-election happens.
The reasons for many Indians supporting AAP are many. Why do you think so big problems are there in Indian system which was not addressed by parties in power from 65 years (many times congress, once BJP) ?
1. Criminals can contest elections. - Parliament didn't do anything rather made laws to protect them. A normal citizen cann't apply for Govt. job even as Peon if he's commmitted petty crime like theft of Rs 500/-, where as a MP/MLA who does crores of fraud can contest elections ??
It took 65 years and finally Supreme Court helped Indian citizens.
2. Why LAW cann't snatch away crores of Rupees jo MP/mla public ke khaa jaataa hai ?? People in financial fraud/bank defaulters, unka to property cheen liyaa jaata hai, accounts sieze kiyaa jaataa hai. Why not same yardstick for politicians like Lalu ??
3. Why no women's reservation of 33% in Parliament ??
4. Why municipality ke contract details are now disclosed transparently on web sites ?
5. Why bahut saarey tax maaf hain for MP/mla's ?
6. Lal battis for all kind of beaurocrats ?? Only whlle emergency they should be allowed to use lal battis. Here again Parliament has hardly done anything. Supreme Court had to intervene on this again.
Etc...etc...long list.
Now AAP should go national. I am sure like Delhi they will find many supporters all over India who will become members of AAP, become volunteers, campaign for AAP and emulate the AAP's Delhi success at National Level.
Many people feel AAP wants to look into such problems and wants to take remedial action AAP. At least sincere intent is there from AAP to improve Indian society unlike most political parties..

Three important issues for India and it's people.
Great Victory for people of India. Convicted(over 2 years punishment) politicians can't fight Elections now. Still I feel in near future attempts will be again made by some way to allow convicted criminal politicians to contest elections. If doesn't happen well very nice.
Indians should note and realise that there are few many more critical issues which will help the way our country is governed in big way :
1. Political parties should be covered by RTI.
The Supreme Court's ruling will help in reducing influence of criminal politicians on Politics.
Now also important is to reduce impact of Money Power on Politics. For that to happen Political parties have to be covered under RTI Act. People will know source of crores of money coming into party fund and also if it'c being spent by them in any wrong manner during campaigning and elections, which we all know is common.
Public will know if these parties are following election related terms & conditions set by Election Commission.
CEC should monitor their financial books and act strictly on it in fearless manner.
So Public pressure and CEC should help in reducing impact pf money power in Elections.
2. Collegium system of appointing SC judges should be protected & continued.
IF Mr Sibbal and other leaders feel it's not very good then changes in it's working should be deliberated with the involvement of MP's & senior reputed judges. Drastically changing it with a completely new system where politicians have more control in appointment of SC judges is WRONG.
All Indians should realise that today Convicted Politicians cann't continue on their seat or contest elections. This great change was initiated by Supreme Court in their ruling. The politicians fought hard to negate it by bill/ordinance. Rest is History.
Unlike CBI, Supreme Court is working in quite free and fair manner. And for that to continue all of must try and ensure that Parliament doesn't implement a new system where Government has control on the selection of Supreme Court judges.

Ho gaya Indian Cricket team ka "Happy Birthday"
Indian team is having a horrible run from last 1-2 years.
In tests they lost 4-0 to England in England. Then lost 4-0 to Australia in Australia. Lost again to England 2-1, sadly this time in India.
Soney pe suhaagaa :) - Now lost one day series with Pakistan(in India again this time too).
Ho gaya naa Happy B'day Indian cricket team ka :) ?
I think to great extent this team has dent the image of Indian Cricket team as fighters that Ganguly had built as a good leader/captain. He got the confidence in the team that we can beat England, Australia, Pakistan on their turfs too. But Dhoni and co have taken the Indian test team back to around 2001 time when Ganguly was appointed the captain.
Alone Dhoni can't be held responsible for this. I feel BCCI and selectors are equally responsible for this poor state of Indian cricket. After the 4-0 & 4-0 losses to Brits & Aussies, when this team couldn't draw 1 test, forget winning, it was clear that the team requires corrective measures/changes. Dhoni should have been replaced by Sehwag/Gambhir/Virat K in tests as Captain. I will not specify the person as let selectors do the job for which the five are paid over 50 Lakhs per annum each.
Dhoni could have been retained as One day and T20 captain as he understands, leads and performs good in these formats. Dhoni can even be continued as member of test team if right now there's no better keeper-batsman in India.
It looked ugly to acknowledge and accept the fact, but from about 2008-9 but it was becoming glaringly clear that the time was almost up for the big 3(tendulkar, dravid, laxman) . It would have been better if in around last 3-4 years, Selectors(bunch of jokers, as referred by Mohinder Amarnath) would have rested one of them on rotation and tried various other young batsmen like Badrinath, Manoj Tiwari, Rahane, Pujara, Virat etc to build a good team for next decade.
I also feel strongly that IPL played a big role too in the downfall of Indian team's Test performance. Batsmen's techniques are compromised for fast runs. Most bowlers just have 3-5 or more kind of deliveries to contain batsmen but don't seem to have pace, swing or turn to take wickets in testing 5 days format. Most spectators and followers are happy seeing jazzy and colourful T20 matches. Money speaks right. Players and board members are enjoying the IPL bonanza.
Hope the Board and selectors get their act together fast and Indian cricket lovers (95% of Indian sport lovers, 5% other sports) can see spirited and professional performance from Indian test team in the longer version. I know most of old and true cricket lovers value one off shore test victory more than 3 T20 wins in India.
Thank you...
