I sit in front of Television every evening to watch the debates amongst different political parties, which are arranged by various news channels. I look forward to understand their policies and perceptions on important current issues before the nation. But what do I find? I can see only the aggressive provocative rhetoric, cheap politics, accusations towards each other and a tendency to move away from the main issue.
To all the spokespersons representing their parties, who come for discussions(?), my advice is to let them know what Kahlil Gibran says? This wise man has said:-
"If you are well mannered towards those whose views are similar to yours, you may be said to exhibit a fairly good character. But, if you behave properly with those holding divergent views from you or who criticise you, then you deserve to be credited with having an excellent character."
