Today, there are no ideologies in Politics


For the last few months, whatever has transpired in the Indian politics were quite shocking to all of us. The Left withdrew support from UPA, and went with the BJP, BSP is now leading a third front which they claim is targeted against nuclear deal, inflation and poverty.On paper, it sounds fair enough. But are they seriously concerned about the masses or are they just concerned about their own interest, or do they just want to extract some revenge on the UPA? These are the question that the people of this country is faced with.Whatever might be the reason, they have to answer to the aam janta who don’t have faith on any party after the trust vote drama in the parliament, which will stand out as a black day in Indian Political History.


As I know Political parties in India love to talk about ideology. Each political party is supposed to have an ideology. So, even if a political party does not have any ideology, it will never say so. If you were to ask probing questions about a party's ideology to a staunch loyalist of the party, they might decline, but I'm sorry to say that currently no party except may be for the Congress has any semblance of an ideology, if they do, it's tainted.


As Left withdraw support from UPA, as it is obvious, they are against the Indo-US nuclear deal for many years, and their ideology is different from Congress, and of course they despise the US. But when they supported BJP in the trust vote, I found it shocking as well as hilarious, as there is no connection between these two ideologies.One is a socialist relic, anti-US and pro-China, another is the Hindu ultra conservative party, forming the fundamentalist far right, if I’m not mistaken.


Other sad thing is that during the trust vote, they were proclaimed and were egging on Mayawati to the Prime minister chair. What was happened to the Left.It seemed like they have lost their senses and only had revenge on their mind. The real question is, how one party can forget their ideology just to keep UPA out of power. How unethical is that? This 123 agreement not only raised the issue of trust vote but also forced us to think about where Indian political parties are headed towards and they aim to lead us and the country. They keep changing their ideologies as per their own interest.It seems, all are just playing dirty politics and are keen in gaining only votes from the people. They are not at all loyal to their own ideologies, so the question is, will they be loyal with us, the public for long?


Today, our country without hope is in a danger zone, and cannot afford to remain in this zone for long. A new ideology and a new political party is the need of the hour. As the new principles and party takes shape, we can either curse our luck for living in this hour of crisis, where is void and chaos among ideology less parties and unethical parties or we can work for heralding a new sunrise.

ideologies? it's an alien concept today. Why just point out politics? Even MNCs, NGOs and every sector has shaky ideologies. I know it sounds harsh but that's the truth.
