Former IPS Officer says:- I was so upbeat when Shashi Tharoor came into politics in 2009. I still remember talking to so many of my NRI friends on how the politics of India will change for better with highly accomplished people and intelligent people like him joining politics. Then by 2013, I was disillusioned with congress and felt Anna Hazare supported by IITian Kejriwal, IPS Kiran Bedi, great actor Aamir Khan will usher in a new change in India. I even donated to India against corruption, went to Ramlila maidaan to shout slogans
Now if I look back at it, the only thing I can do is laugh at myself. But I am happy that I realised the biggest flaw in my thinking. The reason we support people like Shashi Tharoor or a Kejriwal is they are well educated. We are brainwashed from childhood that education is equal to goodness.
NO, IT IS NOT.
Chidambaram is MBA from Harvard and we all know what he did. Mani Shankar Aiyar is from Cambridge - We all know what kind of rubbish he speaks. Kapil Sibal is Harvard Law graduate and all he does is write mercy petitions for terrorists and sells beef.
It is not that congress didn’t have highly educated people in the party. There were lots of them but they were all crooks. And a highly educated crook is even more dangerous as he can dupe you in even more innovative ways.

Everyone from Islamic invaders to Britishers were supported by highly educated and intelligent Indians. Yes, you need them to lord over the country? So the rulers of India cultivated a group of crooks who were well read to rule over us and keep us poor. And Chachaji and his family also continued this trend and cultivated a group of highly educated crooks to rule India. Today we call this group as Lootyens as they stay in an area called Lutyens in Delhi and loot us.
What is the change that BJP and Modi brought into politics?

It made jokers like me realise that IVY LEAGUE DEGREES doesn’t make you a patriot, inculcate honesty or bring goodness.

But people who cultivate character, personality on the basis of ethos of Culture and civilisation of India have patriotism and goodness in them.

Do this experiment if you don’t believe me:
You go into any random RSS Shaka in any part of the country and any time in the year.

And see what they teach those students - Patriotism, Service, Goodness, Honesty and Simplicity.

It is done every day and all throughout the year.

Tell me which Ivy League Univ, IIT, IIM, St Stephens, Doon school or any school where you pay lakhs of rupees as fees teach it?

I have been to world’s top Universities, have 6 degrees but no where my education taught me patriotism or goodness.
It is my dad who taught me and the books I read written by Swami Vivekananda or the man I idolise Shaheed Bhagat Singh who did this.

RSS shakhas do it for all the Sangh goers everyday. Hence people like Modi are so patriotic and honest. I don’t care if he went to school or he has MA or not.

A person who reads Swami Vivekanand or goes to a RSS Shaka is any day better than a crook with IIT or Harvard degree. Yes that is what we need to realise.

It's a simple case. Kejriwal refused to talk to her. His PA asked her to leave. She refused, so he insisted that she won't leave without talking to the CM and PA told her again. She slapped him first, so he just retaliated. She came outside to play the innocent victim that she was assaulted physically without her provoking first. This is typically many women does. She realized her mistake that she was also at fault. That's all!

[satishvengatangu]

I am sure Swati maliwal must have received atleast 200 crore deal and also a higher post within bjp team

[fiamahelena]

She has been paid in crores by the BJP to stage this drama . She has been divorced by her husband because of her deceit and arrogance . The incident took place inside an office as a personal fight. But she yelled as if she has been raped. She is a wretched hypocrite ! This shameless actress will join BJP soon .

[satishvengatangu]

Swati maliwal will definetly get a good medal to backstab kejriwal sir

[sabishere]

I think this is done just to harass kejriwal

[rosarosa]

My sympathies with Swati but what is the news people n BJP Ministers/BJP women workers making such a big issue about it. Women in the recent past have gone through worse times where were you all have you all forgotten the women of Manipur or is it only politics n election

[SAMPATHSHRI]

That character Bibhav kumar looks like a bouncer....

[venkataramanbalakrishnan]

Having beaten a woman in his own 60 CR. residence, Kejiriwal lost support of women not only in Delhi but through out India. Request all Delhi women to throw his own broom on Kejriwal face when he come out. Why our SC has not acted having given Bail. Kejreiwal has got illegal affairs against Swati which irritated his wife & was the reason, Swati was beaten. ANNA HAZARE told today, Kejiriwal is bathing in Money tub by looting money & not interested in India progress. Delhi people please careful while voting. BJP only save India

[codewalters]

The police will investigate if that needed. I think this excites BJP more so they can find one more reason to harass Kejriwal ! No other sitting government has been harassed by Police Governor like AAP government and Swati has said the same.

[RKV]

Swati is intelligent. Kejriwal and AAP believe her voice can be suppressed. IT IS A SHAME FOR THE CONSTITUTION, DEMOCRACY, HUMAN RIGHTS, AND VOTERS. SC judges who grant bail are SILENT. Swati is bold and truthful She will stand for justice and will never settle for falsehood She has a long career ahead and her reputation as a women activist has brought her to this level A woman, a Rajya Sabha MP, a women activist, and chairperson of the women's commission has been beaten up. Several reports of heinous crimes committed by criminals, out on bail, granted by courts, rejected pleas of police, like murdering witnesses, murdering the victims, acid attacks on the victim, etc. Police face hurdles, in the form of bail or stay orders, by the court to prevent crimes, especially by criminals, in bail. Kejriwal is a criminal and is in jail. Earlier an IAS Chief Secretary was beaten up inside his house.
