I've been rooting for @ArvindKejriwal and @AamAadmiParty since they began. I've ignored many things that did not seem right because I saw hope in the larger scheme of things. Unfortunately, they've succumbed to the same system they sought to uproot. This is the India story.

जो लोग अभी दिल्ली के violence को support कर रहे हैं, वो पागल हो चुके हैं, मानसिक संतुलन खो चुके हैं। और जो अभी भी चुप हैं, और ये सब होने दे रहे हैं, वो मर चुके हैं, बस उन्हें पता नहीं है!!!
