In the current political landscape, the quest for a universally accepted leader
within alliances is obscured by the prevalence of superficiality. Regrettably,
respect and honor seem to have given way to a politics of hatred, animosity, and
discrimination, posing a serious threat to Indian democracy. This article aims
to dissect the ramifications of employing indecent language in political
campaigns, with a particular focus on recent instances in Indian politics.
Declining Prestige of Politics:
The use of absurd, unrestrained, and superficial language in political discourse
is indicative of a decline in the prestige of politics. In a country as vast and
diverse as India, the choice of a Prime Minister elected by the common people
should not be reduced to baseless accusations and name-calling. Such discourse
not only undermines the democratic process but also erodes the public's trust in
political institutions.
Contradictions within Political Parties:
An alarming trend is observed within the opposition party, Congress, which
consistently targets industrialist Gautam Adani by labeling him a pickpocket.
Paradoxically, in Congress-ruled states, Chief Ministers engage in business
agreements worth thousands of crores of rupees with Adani. This stark
contradiction raises questions about the sincerity of political accusations
during elections and the impact on the country's economic landscape.
Insulting Industrialists and Economic Impact:
The habit of insulting industrialists, as witnessed in the political narrative,
particularly targets figures like Gautam Adani. Such rhetoric fails to
acknowledge the significant contributions of small and large industrialists who
have played a pivotal role in providing employment to millions of people across
the country. The question arises: does Congress, in its blind opposition to Modi,
unintentionally hinder the nation's developing economy by demeaning its
industrialists?
Unfounded Criticism of the Prime Minister:
One of the most egregious examples of indecent language in political campaigns
is the baseless criticism of the Prime Minister as an illiterate king. Despite
being elected with an overwhelming majority, these derogatory remarks fail to
recognize the Prime Minister's achievements in elevating the country's economy
to four trillion dollars and striving for further progress. Such language not
only undermines the leader but also detracts from constructive political
discourse.
The Concluding Note:
The use of indecent language in political campaigns poses a significant threat
to the foundations of Indian democracy. As politics becomes increasingly
polarized and superficial, the focus shifts from substantive issues to personal
attacks and baseless accusations. To safeguard the democratic process and
restore public trust, it is imperative for political leaders to engage in
respectful and constructive dialogue that prioritizes the nation's welfare over
divisive tactics.
