Aam Aadmi Party – Seventh Myth

Sunil Rajguru, who is a kindred spirit, has written an article which is in line with some of our own theories. He beat us to the punch and kudos to him. He has listed seven myths about the Aam Aadmi party. Here we are going to go through each myth and add our own opinion to it.

Congress support will help AAP.

Who is using who? Is the Congress using the AAP or is it vice versa? That only time will tell, but the Congress has a better track record of destroying parties. It split the Janata Party by supporting Charan Singh. It brought down the Janata Dal government by supporting Chandra Shekhar. In 1998 the Janata Dal was totally destroyed at the national level. The AAP should note that the touch of the Congress is not the Midas touch, but the touch of death.

We are in complete agreement with the theory here. Clearly the AAP is being used by Congress to change the narrative in the media and stall the Modi momentum. The support in Delhi is a tactical move. 

Kejriwal after swearing on his children succumbed to the lure of power and is now the CM. The quid pro quo here is that he is now going to steer clear of corrupt Congress persons. There seems to be a symbiosis here but as Sunil says, Congress is a destroyer of parties and people. They claim to be followers of the coalition dharma but at the end, the junior partners get shafted. Just ask Mamata Bannerjee and Nitish Kumar (who is still waiting for that special status). The vengeance with which the Congress went after Modi (who is the only one who has mounted a credible challenge against the Family) would have destroyed lesser men. The way Sibbal and company destroyed Anna Hazare’s campaign was downright cruel and ruthless. Kejriwal should learn how to sleep with one eye open. The moment AAP becomes a threat to Congress’ votebase, they will set out to destroy the AAP. From the looks of it (recent pre-2014 election polls) it may happen a lot sooner.
