Rahul Mehta Gandhinagar LsCandidate
One of the MOST valid question get from many, including my 12th class old time friend is "what can independent at best do"? ---- Answer is : voters' support to an outside small candidate is the ONLY thing that can convince the good political party workers across parties to force their leaders to change stand !!!
The question of my class-12 friend is ---- (see link in comment) "But being an independent candidate If you win, do you think that you can bring out desired changes. I understand that BJP may not be an idealistic party on many counts. But as a matter of fact, to make any party ( to unite a people with altogether different mindset ) one has to sometimes compromise with their principle to some extent to achieve a greater cause.... Similarly it would be desirable if you can flex your thinking & join BJP & then convince them with your justification to achive your vision. Our country needs intellectuals like you. All the best dear."
Well, I will repeat what I said ---- that 7300 voters supported me in april-2009, and that convinced 100s of activists to read my Right to Recall, Jury System etc proposals, and impact was so high that Anna and AK in april-2011 were forced to give lip service to RTR.
Now if say 73000 voters support me this time, then 10000s of workers across BJP, Congress, AAP will come to know about Right to Recall will notice RTR , DDMRCAM (DDMRCAM = Direct Deposit of Mineral Royalties in Citizens Accounts and Military), JurySys etc law-drafts. And that will increase force on leaders to accept these law-drafts.
Please note the mechanism. The support of 7300 voters mean nothing to Anna, AK. But support of 7300 voters means a lot to activists !! And these activists influence Anna, AK a lot.
Same way 73000 voters support to me mean nothing to apex-leaders of India. But it would influence 10000s of activists across parties such as BJP, Congress, AAP etc.
If I join any party such as Congress, BJP or AAP , then the FIRST pre-condition will be that I will need to stop talking about DDMRCAM, RTR-drafts, Jury System etc. And thus activists will never get information about these proposed law-drafts.
And lastly, if I join Congress, BJP or AAP, then in future, no junior activists will trust any senior activist !! Just as AK's backstabbing (he first said he will never form party, and then he formed party) made many junior activist distrust all senior activists, my joining BJP , Congress, AAP will ruin the faith of juniors in rest of the mankind. Because I have been promising all that I will use all political support I get from them ONLY to publicize these drafts, and not to create a career in Congress, BJP or AAP. Now if I join Congress, BJP or AAP and make a career there, and they will never ever trust anyone again. So if I get tired, I better stay inactive for a while, take rest, come again or retire, but I should now never join Congress, BJP or AAP. Unless, these parties accept DDMRCAM-draft, RTR-draft and Jury System. And if that happens, we wont need Right to Recall Party, and we also wont need most of these parties !!!
So my focus is to get support of some 50000 voters --- that will be enough to motivate all good souls in all parties to read the proposed law-drafts. , then force their leaders and bring these laws in India
