How Arvind Kejriwal lost to Kiran Bedi

Kiran Bedi, who is now openly supporting Narender Modi for Prime Minister of India, is under fire. People start questioning by saying how her political ambitions are different from Arvind Kejriwal as she was also among the one who lead the Janlokpal Movement with Arvind Kejriwal, later on he split in between and formed AAP political party (now CM after stupendous performance in Delhi Election) .




Now after Delhi state election and a breath after AAP took oath, other senior party member from AAP (like Yogender Yadav) plunge into the national political debate and try to present themselves as alternative at national level also. Which is, as per almost everyone convinced, that Delhi elections are not true representation of National Elections. So why AAP is in so much urgency?

But one thing all must understand that Kiran Bedi is willing to join politics (not joined yet) after giving a logical end to the Jankal Movement. May be this Janlokpal Bill passed by govt is toothless, but every act/rule/law has some flaws and they can be amendment, one can fight for it. Every project has many phases till its completion, so is Janlokpal, that's why I wrote "logical end" above.

On the other hand, Arvind Kejriwal, founder of AAP and new Chief Minister of Delhi, left all his works/assignments in the middle of it and moved to next, be it the Tata Steel job (after IIT from 1989-1992) or IRS job (after Civil Services Examination 1995). and the latest is Janlokpal Movement, where he let-down the Anna Hazare in middle of it and formed the political party (AAP) by saying " to clean the system you have to be in the system". Statement is true and hold value but one should not move on the next without finishing and ditching others in halfway to do what you think is right. You collectively started the movement then better give it an end then move to others, could be in other directions. May be this time again, looks like, as delhi CM his eyes are on National Elections.

For a strong and intelligent person doing his passionate work can not distracted by negative voices specially working in team as old proverb still holds value "Union is Strength".
