KEJRIWAL CAN ASK PM CONSTITUTIONSLLY TO SHIFT CENTRAL GOVT TO SOME OTHER STATE!

Any party can come to power. It has only just to promise what a very large majority of people want. If you promise that on becoming the ruling party you would, to give impetus to local traders, allow them to set shop on sidewalks; or no houses already constructed will be demolished for any reason whatsoever, or teachers will be free to run classes at their home and their students will be permitted to attend school exams to encourage education and bring its cost down, you will win 100% of the seats. It is a different matter that when you give benefits freely to some, all others pay for it either by taxes or putting up with discomforts. If such a government comes to power, it will have the right Constitutionally to ask the Central Govt to move over to some other State! It will be right for it to tax the 'rich' at a very high rate to pay the poor. Of course, this will be possible only in the Kingdom of Robin Hood. Not in a modern civilized society.

Today it is the media, tomorrow it might be courts if they give an unpalatable judgment, and the next day banks because they do not lend money without security, and so on. If AAP could put up with the media 24 hours a day and thankfully accept invitations to participate in talk shows from any media, before the election and patiently respond to all sorts of real and fictitious allegations to get elected, what is the problem now to respond to their allegations? How many of the allegations bandied about in election meetings have been followed up after coming to power? Kejriwal behaves like a 'koop mandoop' (frog in the well). He thinks just because his party has been elected to rule from Delhi, Modi should vacate Delhi and go somewhere else to rule India! He will shortly understand the true meaning of the proverb: The higher you fly, the heavier will be your crash. 

It all started with a temporary appointment for ten days of a Secretary level officer. See how much he has extended the issue! One of the principles of argument is: Take the opponent to the extreme of his stated position, condemn that position, thereby implicitly condemning his whole argument. A person who believes in this principle will argue somewhat like this when told that an apple a day keeps the doctor away. "Of course, you are right. Why one apple only? Take one after brushing, another with breakfast, take one more at lunch and the last one with dinner and a few in between. Do this for a few days, then you will realize how good apple is for your health." Kejriwal is using the reverse of this principle. He is blowing up a non-existent issue beyond credibility.
