A son asked his father " what's politics and how can we do clean politics "...
Father replied " you will know shortly.. but first do as i tell you "
Son replied " Ok what i need to do "
Father " Son you are a very good artist .. do one thing put your best painting on display at the market corner and put a placard .. please write what you think is wrong... "
The son did the same and was dejected and depressed when he saw in the evening that his painting was smudges all over with so many defects that the real painting was demolished...
The depressed son shared it with his father who just smiled and said now put your another best painting and put a placard " Please correct all the wrong things in this picture "
The son did the same and was surprised to see that no one had posted anything and the pic was as clean as it was.
The excited son shared this with his father. The father smiled again and said " Now do one more thing. You have that board where you rub your brush for cleaning."
Son said "Yes that is messed up."
Father said " Now son do one thing display this on the market place and put a placard that anyone who can tell the right meaning of this painting stands a chance of wining bumper prizes worth ten thousand rupee and entry fee ten rupee.
The son did the same and was surprised to see overwhelming response.
The excited son shared it with his father that not only they have collected twenty thousand rupees but they have received excellent reviews about the painting.
The father smiled again and said " Son now you understand politics. There are two ways of politics. One way is the last one ... confuse and reward the public.. they will not only appreciate you but pay you as well.
Second way is to actually do good for the public. If you want to do that then don't ask for public opinion. Public is anyway dumb and doesn't know what is good for them. That is why they are called public.".... think about it ... !!!
