Whether Kejriwal has changed politics or politics changed him, it's not a case of "either or". Yes, politics has changed Kejriwal, but Kejriwal has also changed politics. That's why Modi had to build that school set during Gujarat elections.

Your ideals and honesty is commendable Ashutosh. For years, intellectuals have been criticised as armchair intellectuals - it's easy to criticize sitting in your drawing room but, you can't do anything on the ground to change anything. AAP formation was an attempt to change that. Most of the Idealists, like you and me in the party have deserted it, lending credence to the label - armchair or drawing room intellectuals. Arvind Kejriwal, Saurabh, Manish, Atishi and many others are still slugging it out. Huge respect to them.

Arvind kejriwal came to political discourse to change such discourse. His political discourse has been adopted by even Congress Party which is the oldest political party in India and won election in Karnataka and is continuing with same in Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan and Chhattisgarh. His political promise to directly give poor people what elected political leaders are getting. In very short period, he has become national level political leaders.

[@jaideepc786]

Barkha is going great guns and going from strength to strength with each episode, esp since her monumental interview with the famous Pak journalist Wajahat Khan . She truly does a great balancing act and plays neutral in a most mature msnner, despite whatever personal biases she may have, One wishes her that her alliance with Shekhar Gupta would have stayed, it would hv been a treat to watch both. And so impressed with Ashutosh whom one thought was a mere poison spewing machine against Modi, frustrated by AAP politics. He brings out a fairly balanced perspective of the AK phenomenon and calls a spade where due. The interview does well to portray him as a man of deep thought and firm convictions indeed.

[@binaymahanta2137]

Really great interview, great questions and equally great answers! One concern raised by Barkha is that the political environment has become so polarized that it has forced journalism to become that dirty. Ashotosh answered that the solution to that is technology or digital media like youtube. That really empowers people. So only good thing will come out of it when this polarized environment will end. That will happen when people will be fed up. Because the root cause of polarized environment is anger. The big brother of anger is terror which many people used and got devastated. ISIS and Taliban are the extreme forms of it, Pakistan is in a downward spin because of this. Just like sex sells, so is terror. In India it's still in anger form, which still sells, many elections in the last 8-9 years are won due to that. But the obvious outcome of anger is that it becomes unmanageable after sometime, it divides the same people who promoted it together. The whole environment becomes so spiteful, full of infighting that people simply get fed up and just want to throw these people out. It will take a little time, but it will happen eventually.

[@swamykatragadda8661]

I think Kejriwal is honest, articulate ,smart politician. The weakness of every political party is how to fund the running the party & election expenses & their own family expenses when out of power. Politicians acting as commission agents & contract agents are the rule of the day, is difficult for middle class parties like AAP, but is lucky it got Delhi with revenue sources, difficult will be Punjab. With out organization these NON_BJP parties have extreme difficulty to fund their activities, CASTE is the main back bone. Anti BJP- Christian & Muslim votes are these caste parties & congress are after along with candidates caste. If a journalist sticks to questioning who is in authority is to commended. Even at highest levels the media has agenda & supporters - this is how democracy works with in certain limits = it is like TUG OF WAR. For more than 9 decades how media abused RSS & its associates is to be taken into consideration for shutting of certain media by MODI establishment. One should not for get how Radio & TV were under one family dictates.
