The shoe effect

Though the short term effect of the show hurled at P Chindambaram by Jarnail Singh might end up with the withdrawal of Jagdish Tytler's ticket, the long term effect of such acts might actually help clean up criminals from politics. While gandhigiri movements might work as well but once in a while showing the people in charge the real anger and frustration you feel at the system will keep the politicians on their toes and will force them to provide or associate themselves with only the right people. The pressures that these criminals might impose on a party for their personal gain might not help if they are scared of the aam-janta.

The big dilemma today in voting is whether to elect the devil or the deep sea. Incidents like these might just help us have better options. What do you think?
