Page 206 - Arvind Kejriwal

Another 'migratory bird'

In February, a day before Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal was to fly down to Punjab to address a series of election rallies, state Chief Minister Parkash Singh Badal had said "seasonal birds" could be expected in the state as Assembly polls were round the corner. A month on, and in another end of the country, Assam Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi seems to have spotted another "seasonal bird". Last week, he described Bharatiya Janata Party's chief ministerial candidate, Sarbananda Sonowal, as a "migratory bird" for Majuli from where he is contesting the Assembly elections. At an election rally, Gogoi said: "While he is the son of Dibrugarh, Sarbananda migrated to Lakhimpur for the Lok Sabha poll. Then from there he is again migrating to Majuli. It is amusing to see his power-hungry politics."

Letters: Kejriwal should buck up

Apropos the editorial, "A political start-up" (February 17), the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) came to power in Delhi a second consecutive time riding on fanfare and expectations, as it had projected itself as an out-of-the-box alternative to established political parties such as the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and the Congress.Citizens of Delhi might feel let down because Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal has not been able to keep all the promises he made them. But calling his AAP government a failure just a year after it took over is not justified. Of course, in terms of perception - which, at times, is quite close to reality - Kejriwal always seems to be in confrontational mode and ready to pick a fight with the BJP-led government at the Centre. He knows well that the Delhi Police and the municipal corporations are not under his control and that his predecessor Sheila Dikshit ran the government in Delhi quite well for 15 years with this handicap.Kejriwal would have shown maturity as a politic
