What is our role?
Politics is one of the most discussed topics in our time. You will always find somebody who has a different opinion on this topic than you. But there is one thing to which everyone will agree, “Politics is a dirty game.” Once somewhere I read a quote about politics which was really funny, “Politicians and diapers have one thing in common. They should both be changed regularly and for the same reason." That’s the only job left for us, “Maintain a safe distance from this and criticize.” That’s it. As a citizen of a great country like India, we this is our right.
I shouldn’t tease like this. Yeah this is true that to keep ourselves clean, we prefer to keep ourselves miles away from this dirty politics. After the 15 th Lok Sabha elections, Rahul Gandhi invited every educated youngsters of the country to come forward and join the politics. He wasn’t wrong. Even I do believe that maintaining a safe distance is not a solution. He also took the credit that their party gives opportunity to the youngsters.  Over two dozen young Congress leaders had been elected as the Minister of Parliament.
But I have a question Mr. Gandhi. Did you really mean “all the educated youngsters of the country?” It means our kind of ordinary youngsters having no political background, can also join? My another question to you is among these young congress leaders, how many of them belong to an ordinary family background (except Ashok Tanwer)?  
The young Congress MPs, which include Union Ministers, are


 Ajay Maken (Grand son of Om prakash Maked),
 Jyotiraditya Scindia (Son of Madhav Rao Scindhia”),

Sachin Pilot(Son of Rajesh Pilot),
 Milind Deora(Son of Murli Deora),
 Bhanwar Jitendra Singh(Royal family of Rajasthan),

Deepender Hooda(Son of Bhupendra Singh Hooda),
  
Naveen Jindal [Industrialist (Jindal group)],

Shruti Choudhry (Granddaughter of former Haryana chief minister Late Chaudhary Bansi Lal and daughter of former Haryana agriculture minister and two time MP Late Chaudhary Surender Singh. Her mother, Kiran Choudhary was Minister of State for Tourism and Forest in Haryana's cabinet.)

Mausam Benzir Noor(Niece of A.B.A Ganikhan Choudhary),
                                                                        
Hamidullah Sayeed(PM Sayeed).

I’m neither dragging the opposition’s same old “pariwarwad” issue nor taking anyone’s side. Because “power” & “money”, these are two things which have the capability to move everyone’s head. Those who talk about “pariwarwad”, I don’t think that they are exceptional in this case. In this game, every player is the same.

Then what will be the role of us as a citizen of a “democratic country?”  Of course we play a major role; we vote, then we maintain a safe distance and criticize. In short, we play a major role of a silent viewer.
