Highlights of India Today Hindi magazine dated October 31, 2012. Cover Story: India Today Hindi’s cover story Bhago! Nahin Toh Arvind Aa Jaayega is about Arvind Kejriwal and his mission against corruption. It has become a pattern with him. On October 5, his exposé of Sonia Gandhi’s son-in-law, Robert Vadra, caught the country’s imagination, with almost every media organization following the story. On October 10, Kejriwal seized an opportunity to corner Union Law Minister Salman Khurshid, when a story by news channel Aaj Tak revealed financial irregularities in a Trust for the disabled chaired by him. On October 17, his target was BJP President Nitin Gadkari. It was a move aimed at his ultimate agenda: Establish the hollowness of existing mainstream political parties and show why only his party can offer a political alternative. “They are all in it together, making a fool of the people,” thundered Kejriwal. His expose on Gadkari, however, lacked the firepower of the one on Vadra, a sign of the pitfalls of his aggressive name and shame strategy. Sometimes, it may not work. For now, in a politically charged environment, Kejriwal had the BJP on the defensive. Within minutes, his narrative of a rich politician profiting from poor farmers had Sushma Swaraj addressing a press conference to defend Gadkari, just as senior Congress leaders had rushed to declare Vadra a private citizen. The fear in the permanent elite is palpable. Who will be next as the fearless crusader becomes a big game hunter For only when he demolishes the existing pillars of the establishment can Kejriwal erect his new edifice. His fearlessness has inspired others, like IAS officer Ashok Khemka, to expose the rot in Government.
