ظاہر کی آنکھ سے نہ تماشا کرے کوئ
جو دیکھنا تو دیدہ دل واں کرے کوئی
(حقیقت یہ ھے کی آنکھیں آندھی نہیں ہوتی ‘ وہ دل ھے سینے میں وہ اندھا ھو جاتا ہے)
Once #Shinzo Abe said about his success that “a wise man mends his ways and he does not mind losing face for the sake of the country and its people”.
In India, we lack leaders like Shinzo Abe but we have had many leaders with false corrupt ideology, post Jai Prakash Narayan Andolan of 1974. The names are endless from Arun Nehru to Narsimha Rao, Parnab Mukherjee to Fernandes, to Prakash Karat or Yashwant Sinha to Shatroghan Sinha…. Almost all successful leaders after 1977 were from upper hierarchical Castes except Lalu Prasad Yadav and Nitish Kumar of Bihar.
Yesterday, Bharat Ratna recipient and ex- President Parnab Mukherjee died due to the old age and sickness. He was part of Indian politics since Mrs Indira Gandhi’s era with congress socialist make-up. In the last decade he was the contact person between Congress and the RSS.
On 7th June 2018, Mukherjee addressed RSS parcharaks in Nagpur to make his name in history as a “Great Statesman” of post Indira’s age, but it misfired. At Shakha in Nagpur, Mukherjee, a Congressi called RSS founder KB Hedgewar “a great son of Mother India”.
The BJP and Modi’s appeasement policy of China since 2011 subsequently increased import of $72 billion of goods from China in 2019. This did not paid well in 2020 after Kashmir debacle of 370 and NRC agitation of Shaheen Bhagh. The worst is yet to come!
The oil crisis after 1973 Arab-Israel War changed Europe/America’s economies for good. In the last 20 years 52% of the Fortune 500 companies disappeared and 70% of the existing companies will disappear in the next 20 years after Covid-19.
Today, China, Saudi Arabia, UAE and Turkey are investing billions of dollar in Artificial Intelligence (AI), social and economy sectors, educating more people, building Smart cities as well as defence intelligence etc to survive and dominate the world for next forty years.
At present there is no leader in India who has the leadership qualities to unifying the country against a corrupt-social fabric, worst historical economic crisis and external threats from China.

Jou dekhna hai tou didaye dil waa kare kouyee” (Iqbal)
