Once upon a time, during initial
days of his political career, the 'Aam Aadmi' of Delhi, with a pan-India ambition,
saw the opportunity in quickly metamorphosing his 'activism to political
activism'.
Once upon a time, there came a
day, in an 'alternative-hungry' country, when he reaped unexpectedly rich
dividend, taking his entourage to power corridors of Delhi.
Once upon a time, during those
days of his first stint with 'political power', he realized his aspirations
were much bigger and Delhi's office was much smaller.
Once upon a time, after a brief
experiment with his political initiation and the experience thereof, that 'Aam
Aadmi' came to the conclusion that he had a distinct advantage that placed him
in a better position - something that other 'mainstream' politicians couldn't
use - he could brand his style of politics as 'political activism' and he went
to the extent to use such words like 'anarchy' or indulged in 'unlawful but
populist' acts.
Once upon a time, there came a day,
when he left people of Delhi for greener political pastures.
Once upon a time, after deserting
Delhi, he saw the next big opportunity in Varanasi, but the decision backfired.
Once upon a time, after his
political initiation and political experiences in Delhi and Varanasi, he was
left with no other option but to head back to Delhi, the city that he had just
deserted.
Once upon a time, while thinking
so, he was also supported by such thoughts like what he did was quite common in
Indian politics and with his 'skill of saying sorry', he could resuscitate his
'political career' in Delhi again.
Once upon a time, there came a
time, after his 'profuse flow of sorrys', when Delhi not only resuscitated him,
but made him the absolute 'political king' for five years. Obviously his
political rival, including BJP and Congress, helped significantly in it.
Once upon a time, after regaining
his political career and Delhi's power corridors, that 'Aam Aadmi' decided it
was 'the time' to come out of the garb of 'political activism' and practice
'mainstream Indian politics' full time.
Once upon a time, there came a
day in his almost three year old political career, when that 'Aam Aadmi' had
the opportunity to shed his 'mainstream political inhibitions' finally.
Once upon a time, the day came
finally in his 'political life' when he graduated to the grand narrative of
Indian politics by throwing away people who could pose challenge to his hold over
the party of 'Aam Aadmis' - and he did so in style and in one go.
Once upon a time, there came the
day when he could finally crush the internal democracy in his party of 'Aam
Aadmis'.
Once upon a time, there came a
time in his almost three year old political career, when that 'Aam Aadmi' felt
now was the time go full time 'VVIP'.
Once upon a time, there came the
next step in the political career of that 'Aam Aadmi' when he started acting,
sounding and practicing 'Khaas Aadmi' the way Indian politicians do.
Once upon a time, while
conceptualizing his future political roadmap, that 'Khaas Aam Aadmi' thought he
could still follow greener pastures and the best way to do so was sounding
'Delhiite', while at the same time, engaging in confrontational politics with
other 'powers-that-be'.
Once upon a time, there came a
time when that 'Khaas Aam Aadmi' began on the next step of his political
journey in full throttle, junking all his previous promises that he made in the
name of 'political activism'- VIP culture, Jan Lokpal, anti-corruption fight,
Aam Aadmi sort of life style, etc.
