Abstract

While addressing an election meeting in a Kurukshetra village recently, the BJP candidate and well-known industrialist Naveen Jindal asked the audience rhetorically, “Which is greater – the party or the nation?” to which the unanimous and prompt answer was “Nation.” The intent behind this, as can be guessed, was to explain his change of party. But come to think of it – isn’t it a relevant question to be asked of all voters and also political parties?
