Lost and gain of 2013

Year 2013 saw fall of some personalities and rise of some.  The always falling image of Prime Minister Manmohan Singh can not find any breaks, so does the quintessential appeal of Congress party. It seems baggage of corruption loot become impossible to carry forward the fortune of both the entities.  The Rahul Gandhi's so called inherited charisma seems to be faded away before blossoming. The failure after failure, has very aptly justified the bollywood song 'Pappu can't dance sala...'.

Laloo Prasad Yadav is finally in jail, thanks to fodder scam, seems to shattered man, he may have never though about a politician going to jail for corruption charges.

Nitish Kumar the savior of down trodden, and messiah of minorities lost the sheen since shifting to congress fold, 'Ab topi pehenke bhi koi faayada nahi...'.

Biggest rise of during the year is of Narendra Modi, despite the cacophony of congress, paid media, and sec-liberals about his so-called role in Gujarat riots, which the legal system of india has quashed time and again.  Another rise, a la comet, is Arvind Kejriwal of Aam Aadmi Party, Kiran Bedi once said of his achievements as a formula to become Chief Minister in two years, which get Gandhi like pure soul, in this case Anna Hazare, build a social cause, spin of a party from it and win elections to become CM.

Good bye 2013

2013 is about to end.  The fluid political situation has seen rise of ostracized Narendra Modi as topmost contender for post of Prime Minister in 2014. 

Another dramatic rise is of Arvind Kejriwal and his AAP, which spun out from Anna Hazare's movement against corruption.  Narendra Modi has good proven record as able administrator and visionary, while Arvind Kejriwal is a reactionary activist with idealistic viewpoints but yet to deliver.

Meanwhile the common man suffers the high inflation, inactive Manmohan Singh as PM, failed projection of Rahul Gandhi as young leader if totally corrupt congress party.

Good bye 2013 and welcome 2014.

Personality driven by mental makeup

Mental makeup of a person, creates biases of various kinds, which reflect in their likings and seriously affects their sense of justice.  The political choices, product preferences and general attitude is shaped by these biases.

These biases can lead the people towards extremities and which can affect other peoples lives too.  This will often start social conflicts, which even echo intellectual discourses on the new age media like social networks.  People tend to drive by what they believe rather than what they reason.

Mass psychology is shaped by the biases by groups and their shared ideas, which has always proven to be game changers, even triggering historical events.
