The Manmohan Singh government’s assertion that there can be no forward movement on statehood for Telangana until the Andhra Assembly passes a resolution supporting the state’s bifurcation should set at rest any fears that the issue would be bulldozed through. Clearly, so long as legislators from Telangana are not joined by a substantial number from the rest of the state to cobble up a majority in the assembly, the carving out of a new state is ruled out. With the winter session of the state assembly having been adjourned sine die on Monday, well ahead of its scheduled December 23 date, and resignations of 138 legislators lying with the Speaker in protest against the Centre’s in-principle decision to work towards statehood for Telangana, the issue will doubtlessly remain in cold storage for now. Consequently, politicians who had raised the pitch in West Bengal for a separate Gorkhaland, in Maharashtra for Vidarbha, in U.P. for Harit Pradesh, Bundelkhand and Purvanchal, besides similar demands in other parts of the country, using Telangana as a convenient pretext, would now be deprived of that prop.In Andhra, the supporters of Jaganmohan Reddy, son of the late chief minister Rajsekhar Reddy had been nursing a grouse against their leader not being allowed to succeed his illustrious father. Their acceptance of K. Rosaiah as chief minister was forced and half-hearted. The Telangana issue had given them an opportunity to settle scores with Mr Rosaiah and through him with the party high command. It would require deft handling to restore a modicum of unity in the party. Other political parties are equally divided along predictable regional lines.
While it is but fair that there be no further movement on the Telangana issue until an assembly resolution is passed, it is time that politicians stop fanning the embers of hatred. Andhra Pradesh has frittered away a full session of the assembly with no business transacted. Losses from work stoppages have also been on a massive scale. Neither Andhra nor West Bengal’s Darjeeling region, nor Maharashtra or UP can afford disruption of economic activity in these difficult times. It is indeed vital that sanity prevails.
India has produced many great men. One of them is former Indian Prime Minister Jawaharlal Nehru. His name is known all over the world as a great statesman and lover of peace.
Nehru was born with a silver spoon. His father Motilal Nehru was a rich lawyer at Allahabad. Nehru had completed his college education in England. He led a princely life in his early days.
One day he met Mahatma Gandhi. It was the turning point in his life. He took a leading role in country’s freedom fight against British. During the struggle for freedom, Nehru went to prison many times. He bore his sufferings of prison bravely. Even though he lost his father and his beloved wife, he did not give up. He was a man of great daring and courage.
Nehru was a great speaker and writer too. Some of his books have won lasting fame. ‘The Discovery of India’ is a famous book written by him. Another famous book of him is ‘Letters from a Father to His Daughter’. It is a collection of letters written by Jawaharlal Nehru to his daughter Indira Gandhi who is also a former Prime Minister of India.
When India got freedom in 1947 Nehru became its Prime Minister. Till his death in 1964, he dedicated his life to make India great and prosperous. He also did his best to promote world peace. He loved children very much. His birthday November 14 is celebrated as children’s day on every year. He was a great patriot and lover of mankind. He put red rose in his shirt usually. In Tamil Nadu which is one of the states of India, he is praised as “Rojavin Raja”. His name will shine for ever in the pages of history.

“Politics” this word has become an infamous word now-a-days. The basic definition about Politics has under gone change in recent past. When referred, people imagine some dirty politicians craving for power and doing everything and anything possible and trying their best to pull each other down, just to be in power. But, if we go back in history, there can be many instances found where politics has been used as a tool to achieve goals, good or bad. Some people also say that politics is a drainage system, just full of waste and rubbish. But my stance on politics is different.
I feel that politics prevails everywhere, in life of each one of us. Knowingly or unknowingly we are a part of it. I view it as a tool or a weapon for us to defend ourselves, sometimes to attack the enemies in a battle called “Survival of the fittest…” In his book Mein Kampf, Adolf Hitler mentions the years and years of politics that England played to remain the front-most power in Europe. They engaged all the aspirants to fight among themselves so that nobody becomes powerful enough to challenge them. This is a political game they played to remain powerful, not attacking enemies directly, but making them fight among themselves so that they remain the ultimate winner.
Another instance could be of our great Indian Hero, Shivaji Maharaj. When he was under the arrest of Aurangzeb, it was not easy for him to escape from his clutches as the latter was too powerful to defeat. But Shivaji struck the weakness of Aurangzeb’s security and made a loophole in it and escaped. The unlawful escape from the captivity can be viewed as an offence from Aurangzeb’s point of view, but for benefit of his people and his kingdom Shivaji had to do. It was not an act of cowardice, but he actually proved that Wit is mightier than Swords. His intention behind it was well justified.
The point I am trying to make here is that, everyone is allowed to use politics in their life as a tool, but the purpose behind it is what actually matters. Today people have made a dirty definition for politics and simply bad-mouth the people involved in it. If we feel that it is a drain, then we forget that we need to enter in a drain to clean it. Today politics has become a race for the survival of the fittest. The one who can play this game best is the winner. Some play vote-bank politics while some try to be extremists and try to get votes out of it. Hate speeches and many more things have now become the tools. Austerity is now gaining importance in this sector. But why should one blame them? When the ultimate power is in our hands, why to allow them to play such games? Not to forget, we are the fittest to survive. If we play politics too, where would they go? They cannot escape and can be our slaves if we play “Vote for No-body” politics.
Coming to smaller scenarios involving our daily life, we come across politics in offices, our housing societies and many more places. In today’s world one has to be well skilled and efficient in playing politics not with a dirty intention though, but at least to protect ourselves from games and treacheries that our rivals may play against us. Like some people may try to use you for their selfish needs. But to retaliate to it and not to allow that person to use you as puppet, there is nothing wrong if you play tactics against that person. “Iron moulds Iron” (Loha Lohe ko Kaatata hain) is really applicable in such cases.
To sum up, we need to change our perception about politics. Just cursing it will not really help. Nobody in this world shall ever stop you from being a part of politics or using it for your purpose. It is just that the efficiency and expertise you show in it is what really matters. If you deliver your best then you are benefitted to a great extent. We can think of our life as a Chess-board. A different kind of chess board where one can use treacheries, game plans and strategies to break their counter-parts on the enemy’s side.
