Arvind Kejriwal has become a Frankenstein Monster created by Congress and trained by modern day Gandhi Anna Hazare. The unruly horse is in no one’s control and is ready to eat up governance, democracy and ethical politics. Though he vowed at the time of floating his party AAP that agitations undertaken by IAC under Anna was not yielding results, it has become necessary to plunge into direct politics to enter the arena of Governance to give relief to the people against their fight against corruption and cleanse politics. Anna completely disassociated himself from him and dissolved the Core Committee. All his colleagues joined him in politics except Justice Santosh Hegde, former Judge of Supreme Court and Ms. Kiran Bedi.
Well and good. He and his party AAP achieved some success by posting 28 seats in Delhi Assembly routing Congress and reducing it to a single digit party bagging only 8 seats. Though BJP increased its tally to 32 from 23 last time but it fell short by 4 seats to form the Government. Congress extended its unconditional support to Kejriwal who after initial dilly dally formed a minority Government. In a couple of days he claimed that he fulfilled his two vital poll promises of free water and cut in electricity rates by 50%, though it remains a contentious issue whether water flew uninterruptedly to the homes of needy people with many ifs and buts in his order for supply of free water.
He had boasted from the roof top that his government will bring a complete halt to VIP culture but in a few days nodded by 10 Bed Rooms Chief Minister Residence at Tilak Marg and his ministerial colleagues started travelling in expensive Innovas flashing VIP number plates.He promised that 45 night shelters will be erected within 24 hrs. to bring relief to pavement dwellers but it remained an empty promise only. When controversies erupted on his 10 bedrooms twin house, he refused to move into the house and asked for smaller house. A news item broke in media that his Law Minister was indicted by a CBI Court in Delhi for tampering with the evidence which order was approved by Delhi High Court and that H.C.Order was,when appealed in Supreme Court,had to be blinked by Law Minister by withdrawing it, Kejriwal showed utter disregard and pronounced his own verdict that order passed by the court was wrong and his Minister was wrongly indicted. His Law Minister Somnath Bharti plunged into policing and went to Khirki Ext.of Malviya Nagar along with PCR Van and SHO and ordered him to carry out searches at the places of some African ladies on the allegations that were dealing in drugs and indulging in flesh trade.The SHO refused to carry out such illegal order, the Minister and AAP party colleagues entered their home, beat them and took them to the Hospital and ladies were forced to give urine sample which was found negative and also subjected them to cavity searches. When a few people raised objections to this kind of misbehavior, Minister used filthy language against them.
These foreign girls lodged complaint to their country’s envoy who lodged strong protest with MEA of G.O.I. The girls also lodged complaint with the Police which recorded FIR against unknown persons.They recognised Bharti leading the AAP’s mob. Their statements were recorded by the Magistrate. The Matter is at investigation stage. The NCW also issued notice to Bharti for violations of human rights and indignity to these women.
Arvind Kejriwal, instead of feeling ashamed at the misbehavior of Bharti, demanded that those Police personnel’s be suspended immediately. When his illegal demands were not met he along with his Ministers laid a seize at Rail Bhawan violating Sec 144 order which was promulgated in view of preparation for 26th.January. The Dharana continued for two days and Kejriwal gave a claion call to countrymen to assemble at Rajpath in lacs and block organising 26th, January celebrations. He also called upon Policemen to remove their uniforms and participate in Dharna. Fortunately, this time people did not respond and only a handfull of his supporters had gathered. Ugly unruly behaviour of his supporters forced Police to lathicharge. Police gave ultimatum to Kejriwal to lift dharna from there and go elsewhere. On his failure to incite people,a face saver was devised when Yogendra Yadav went to meet the Lt. Governer. The L.G.issued an appeal to Kejriwal to lift Dharna. Two Police Officers went on leave and announced victory for the people of Delhi and evacuated the place with his supporters.
Juatice Hegde questioned the wisdom of Delhi CM sitting on Dharna in violation of prohibitory order. If Police had arrested the CM, a constitutional crisis would had arisen. Media heavily critised him for his pro-activist role. Social sites were full of condemnations of his Dharna. I had long conversations with tweeter friends on Kejriwal letting loose anarchy and chaos in Delhi. I had pronounced that governance is not the cup of tea for Kejriwal. After becoming CM he should have become an administrator but he remains an activist only. His pronouncement of clean governance was only a bogey and he enacted whole drama to save Law Minister Bharti. Pressure is mounting on him to seek resignation of Bharti but he wants to shield him. Police have to act in accordance with law against Bharti and even Kejriwal for violation of prohobitery orders for which FIRs have been lodged. Kiran Bedi is being threatened with dire consequences for criticising Kejriwal and supporting Modi openly.
The AAP Government in Delhi is creation of Congress to stop uprising of Modi. Congress is using Kejriwal as a pawn against Modi. Congress forgets that it has created a Frankenstein Monster in Kejriwal who will eat its creator as it does not believe in democracy and good governance.

I agree with Vijay here that frustration with current political class created AAP. Aam Aadmi chose aam aadmi from among them to represent it. But unfortunately people who it chose as representatives also are no different as they claim out to be.
srivastav sir authentic point you have raise ….the Story of Mr. Kejriwal remind me 80-90’s in that era Mrs Gandhi created a man name J S Bhindrawala. all of know what we Indian still facing the consequences …so it all about Indian what they will choose one more Frankenstein in Indai..
I loved the title “Frankenstein Monster”. We all thoroughly discussed about Arvind Kejriwal and #AAP. I don’t think congress created it. Even I had a feeling before that it is illegitimate child of congress. It is a byproduct of our pathetic political system. The truth is congress and paid media is using #AAP to stop Modiji and BJP from racing ahead in LS polls. Congress party’s filthy think tank working full time to dislodge BJP from the national scene. Thank you. Good innovative write up.
Very good post
