After he resigned his job as a collector and created a trend of an IAS officer becoming a politician for the good of common man, many expected miracles to happen in Andhra Pradesh. But then, Jayaprakash Narayan could not really sustain the dirt of real politics and managed to settle himself as a statesman.
Though his party Lok Satta just exists and JP has a decent following, it is his words and thoughts that really connect with the educated crowds. Here is another example of his mastery over words. JP gave a statement which goes like this - It is vital that a broad consensus built across all regions. There must be equal dissatisfaction for all. All interests should be protected.
To those who understood the essence of JP’s statement, the way he used the word dissatisfaction in the most satisfying way possible need not be explained. There is every bit of truth in what JP said. Of course, the thick skinned politicians or the tyrannical congress government in Delhi would definitely not pay heed to it. This is just for some intellects to satisfy their Gyan and praise JP for a while.
