Shiv Sena President Uddhav Thackeray seems to have joined the anti-Aam Aadmi Party chorus labelling Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal as “item girl, madari and joker”. This was least expected from the leaders like Uddhav Thackeray. Senior Thackeray Balasaheb used to mock and mimic many politicians but he always chose proper words and expressions. Uddhav is a failed leader and whatever position he has today that is because of dynasty. He has not earned that position but received it and he never fought for it. This was the main reason why Raj Thackeray walked away from Shiv Sena. Today, Shiv Sena is in a dilapidated condition. It doesn’t have much existence. Uddhav should realize, Rakhi Sawant has managed to build her name and career without any base. She has not earned her name and fame because of dynasty. She has earned it by struggling and slogging in this odd world.

Leaders like Uddhav should have basic respect for woman and her dignity. Moreover, the comparison was not wrong. Even Kejriwal too earned this reputation and position just in 13 months on his own struggle, his father was not his fate maker as a politician. In spite of having strong support from Balasaheb, Uddhav failed to establish himself as a leader. As it suits to his personality, he and his party remained only in Municipal Corporation of some cities. Neither Kejriwal nor Rakhi Sawant can be compared with Uddhav, as both have struggled for what they have today. We feel proud to say that ARVIND KEJRIWAL belongs to our country as he is cleaning 60 years of ‘bad governance’ through his revolution. This is a volcano which would remove those who does not understand people’s power and a small hope will be fully synergies to be the next power center. We would love to see those politicians going who are rampantly looting Mumbai without any fear of people’s power. Uddhav’s contribution for Mumbai or Maharashtra is zero. The sources say, in Uddhav’s political darbar, the decisions are taken from his wives kitchen.

In “Saamana”, Thackeray said over the years, Indian politics has witnessed many “jokers”; starting with Raj Narain, later the antics of Lalu Prasad Yadav, and many others. However, he has forgotten those ‘joker’ had their own existence and wisdom. They were not made or blessed by their dad to remain in power or position. What is Uddhav’s caliber and contribution? His only identity is that of Balasaheb’s son. He said Delhi Law Minister Somnath Bharti carried out illegal raids in the city and gave unauthorised orders to the police which started the entire fracas in the national capital earlier this week. While Uddhav is accusing AAP and Somnath Bharati for the raid, why he kept quiet when girls were raped, why he did not show his aggressiveness at that time? This is hypocrisy, Mr. Uddhav. If the police had done its job correctly, then AAP would not have intervened in the matter. I am not an ardent supporter of the AAP, but I do not like when somebody attacks them without any reason. Uddhav can never be Kejriwal and Shiv Sena will not come in power like AAP made it. I know, Uddhav must be sulking as AAP is making its presence in Mumbai, and they may damage Uddhav’s thin future.

Low esteem towards women is a menace in the society. In our country, it is deep rooted. We need a holistic approach to this problem to wipe out forever, not just band-aids. A better education which emphasizes on the moral spiritual wellbeing of the humanity is essential. A good sex education is also important taking the matter into the fact that 90 per cent of the rapes or sexual misdemeanor happens inside the family. Before accusing AAP’s law minister, Uddhav should understand the ground reality. By comparing Rakhi Sawant to politicians, he has shown his mental ability and thinking level.

When one reads or listens to the media, it seems that the only grievous issue in the land is the road side sit-in strike done by the AAP ministers cum supporters in Delhi. Another, equally important news is that an AAP minister’s visit to an insalubrious area of Delhi where he was invited by the residents to witness the illegal activities happening there at night. The accusation is that Bharti insulted femininity of the entire female population of the world as if such a thing has never happened before and it is the first time in India! A village elder who ordered his men to gang rape a 20 year old woman is not a serious crime as was the body search of Devyani Khobragarde in the US. The entire parliament of India took it up as if in India every Indian woman gets respectable treatment here. The political parties who ruled India since 1947 did not and/or could not do anything to emancipate its female population from atrocities committed day in and day out by India’s wise men throughout its history. I know, what I wrote in the preceding sentence is offensive and anti-state but I cannot stop saying it. If this type of callous and egregious acts is taking place in almost every village in India even today that is in the second decade of the 21st century.

Sometimes, when I see the verbal diarrhea of a politician like this, then I feel that Rakhi Sawant is having much wisdom than they possess, because she knows that what she is talking about and why. Please, spare the lady to her own world.
