Why AK is a potential dictator?

The devout supporters of Arvind Kejriwal, the aloof voters of Delhi and the critics of the Delhi CM would agree on one count; that Kejri has all the signs of becoming a full-fledged despot.

His transformation from a humble “aam aadmi” to what he has become today, has been rather swift.

Those who expected AK to deliver on his promises are witness to non-stop drama on the issue of appointment of principal secretary and additional chief secretary.

The turf war with LG Jung has become AK’s “meri jung.” Now AK is ready to unleash another round of street fight.

The confrontation over appointments is just the symptom of what is in store for Delhi.

Why media was a friend, media is a foe?

Wasn’t it shocking to see AK favouring to put tight leash on media? What went wrong? Is it because the same devout media, who found a messiah in Arvind Kejriwal, started questioning him?

Media use to massage his ego and make him a great political reformer. Kejriwal, who was keen on bringing swaraj, keen on bringing change in the system, why did he see an enemy in the media?

A large section of biased media writes to please political masters. 

When Kejriwal decided to gag media, it was sure that Kejri would find nobody backing him. His bluff was called by Supreme Court. Kejriwal was exposed.

But still a large section of media was still silent on Kejriwal's talibani circular, who will keep on propping Kejri in order to contain PM Narendra Modi on Delhi’s political turf.

Once an "Anna bhakt", Kejriwal used him, and threw him back to Ralegaon Sidhi, once his political goal was met.

He gained political legitimacy by aligning with legal luminaries like Shanti Bhushan, and Prashant Bhushan, who had exposed misdeeds of UPA regime. Bhushans had in past taken on Gandhis, exposed many scams, ensured arrests of many.

In Delhi circle, Bhushans were revered and feared equally. Kejriwal ditched them and managed to give them lessons of their lives.

For all those in the know, Kejriwal learnt his political lessons from Yogendra Yadav.

For years, Yadav’s political surveys/calculations were taken seriously, YY failed to realise how quickly their positions were made so untenable.

What happened to both Bhushans and Yadav? They were systematically discredited, pushed to the corner and made irrelevant. Kejriwal used his political might to silence his political adversaries. Those who questioned him were thrown out of the party.
