Power politics

Sir, — The crisis which followed the elections in Jammu and Kashmir indicated the desperation of all the political parties to grab power. Driven by personal motives, the parties enter into alliances notwithstanding ideological differences.

But as soon as they gain power, they try to benefit as much as they can within a stipulated period.

In this power game, the worst sufferers are the innocent citizens who vote them to power at the cost of their lives.
