Criterias of Politician

Politician have three qualities
1. Policy
2. Inspiration
3. Implementation.
First and foremost every politician should have a certain policies. People who agree to similar policy should come under one umbrella of that set of policies. There are two groups who are clear with their policies in Indian politics. They are left wing and right wing. Others have opportunism as policy. They are more like cult, running round some personality, than a political group. Policy is right or wrong will be proved by logic and time. One example can be given that is of Shyama Prasad Mukharji. He advanced Integral humanism as his policy. He was not very successful during his lifetime but about half a century later his words are being followed by one of the largest group of the parliament.

Then, Politician should inspire other leaders to join his policy. This can be done by many ways. The best is to discuss and convince. One who follows this is the best politician. The best example for this must be Jayaprakash Narayan, who stood tallest among leaders at the time of emergency It could be seen when BJP formed government in Jharkhand with JMM because it was seen by many as impossible. Sadly we don’t see many employing the same. Unfortunately, such ways are used only for delaying an action. The best example for this can be seen in case of women quota. Second is to bribe. These bribes can either be monitory or favor. This has become more popular way. Recent example of this was displayed in case of nuclear deal. People told that money changed hands. BSP supported government to get favor in some cases pending with CBI. This is the stage for action of opposition to the policy to act.
Third is implementation. Here comes the honesty and integrity of the politician in charge. Here the energy of the politician is tested. One can be here on stage but they should also be hero in the field. To give high expectation and mobilize people is easy. To deliver is the test. Environment minister has been accused of showing missionary zeal but such zeal and not allowing other policies to go forward. It could rather be suggested that similar zeal is lacking in other ministry. It seems every ministry is having problem with him but it was Kamal Nath, ex-road and transport minister who faced policies of environment and took the road building ahead. One could see similar zeal in Khanduri, Road minister and Arun Shourie, Disinvestment minister in Vajpeyi government. At state level best example can be that of Narendra modi. Others who have made visible improvements can be Nitish in social policies, Raman in Naxal policies, Krishna and Naidu for IT policies. Their zeal is worth studying and replicating. One negative example should not go unnoticed and that is of Man Mohan Singh in nuclear policies. So much was invested in that. In fact that was only policy which he could stand for as his own child. So many of political equations were changed, to bring that policy. But we have not seen any result of that There is nothing new in nuclear front. Two recent news should be taken in consideration. One is Jaitapur project which is having hiccups and there was news that Pakistan has more atomic bombs than Bharat. Both news should better decorate dustbin.
One must be very watchful of acts of politician. Greater worry is, how many will qualify to be a politician.
