End of the era of "corrupt" leaders ; enter the era of "sponsored" and "puppet" leaders !!! SOLUTION? Please see last para.
.
We are finally exiting the ear of "corrupt" leaders and entering the era of "puppet" and "sponsored" leaders.
.
In past , leaders had their own base in activists and leaders and / or activists had base in common voters. These leaders would get elected or help others in getting elected. And then they would ask form cash bribes from assorted businessmen and industrialists for right or wrong work they need to get done.
.
Well, all that is decreasing drastically.
.
The new "leaders" have no base in "activists" as well as voters. All their popularity is via paidmediamen only.And the leaders have no money to pay the paidmediamen. The paidmediamen are paid by assorted business houses and assorted industrialists, desi or videsi, and these elitemen ask paidmediamen to promote some leaders. And in turn, these agents work as their loyal puppets. These leaders DO NOT ask for bribes here and there.
.
The reason why sponsored leaders are becoming stronger is because paidmedia's reach is increasing.
.
Most of the "new" leaders say those below age of 50 years, fall in category. ArGandhi is 100% sponsored / puppet and "non corrupt". So is SZI aka Rashtriya Bahu aka Rashtriya Beti.
.
Now what about NaMo?
.
In 2001, NaMo had REAL base in in RSS-workers and RSS-workers had REAL base in voters. The base was via social services and also via paidmediamen. But there was was REAL mass base. But as paidmedia's reach started increasing, the real base was becoming COMPARATIVELY weaker. So NaMo stoo had to depend on sponsors. The sponsors started paying paidmediamen like paid-Rajdeep-paid-Sardesai paid-Burkha-paid-Dutt to bash NaMo as "anti-muslim" so that NaMo's popularity in Hindu increases !!! And they were also paid to ensure that paidmedia doesnt focus on important failures of NaMo such as massive failure to improve municipal schools.
.
And at national level situation was worse. The real mass base of RSS / BJP was only some 20% of all voters. The rest were with by other leaders and a big chunk was with paidmediamen.
.
So NaMo had no option but to cut deals with elitemen, and accepted their puppets as leaders. SZI is one such puppet / sponsored leaders. She never had any mass base. But paidmediamen , after getting money from her sponsors, projected her as a giant vote-catcher and highly popular "leader" in India. Like that, now BJP has too many leaders who are just sponsored.
.
And in addition, paidmediamen gave huge coverage to NaMo himself.
.
So is NaMo real leader or puppet leader? Well, NaMo got 40% of total polled votes in may-2014 loksabha election. Of this, only 20% are via RSS-activists. Some 10% are via assorted small leaders like Paswan etc.And remaining 10% are via paidmedia ONLY.
.
So while leaders like ArGandhi / SZI are 100% sponsored, NaMo is 50% real, 25% dependened on other real leader and 25% sponsored / puppet. And as time goes, the sponsored / puppet is increasing, The REAL mass base is eroding due to daal = pulse price , no rise in employment, no declcine in corruption and no improvement in education. As trend goes, by 2019, we will see a PM who is over 50% puppet / sponsored. Or worse, some 100% puppet like ArGandhi may become leader.
.
Now, there is NOTHING wrong in a leader who is dependent on other leaders as long as all leaders have real activist / mass base. eg NaMo depends on Paswan, but then Paswan has real mass / activist base of his own. So NaMo's dependence on Paswan wont damage India. But NaMo now depends on media-owing elitemen and those elitemen have ordere dNaMo to project SZI as CM candidate of UP. .IOW, NaMo doesnt depend on SZI but NaMo depends on elitemen. And elitemen have no mass base --- their base is via paidmedia which provides entertainment. Such dependence is dangerous.
.
Now leaders in USA are also sponsored and puppets. So whats wrong if leaders in India also become puppets / sponsored?
.
Well, leaders in USA are puppets of US-elitemen, Whereas leaders of India are becoming puppets not of Indian-elitemen but US-elitemen !!! IOW, growing influence of USUK-elietemen, that to growing INVISIBLE influence and influence via puppet is the problem. If India was directly and openly ruled by USUK elitemen, via some officially appointed viceroy, then activists could have easily freed India. But when rule is via puppet leaders who look 100% Indian and 200% free and 400% brave, activists cant even convince voters that action is needed. And these leaders will be 100% non-corrupt !! Not even Re 1 of bribes !!
.
SOLUTION?
.
Solution I propose is that activists should publicize law-drafts that will make India's manufacturing as strong as USA, such as Jurysys , RTR , wealth tax etc,. How will these help? These leaders will be forced to oppose these law-drafts. And that will enable activists to expose these leaders before other activists and voters.
.
IOW, only solution I see is --- publicize law-drafts that will make India at par with USA.
