‘Politics of jail’ vs ‘politics of education’
In his letter, the AAP leader questioned why education has been side-lined, despite its critical importance.
“If politicians had devoted their resources and energy towards education, every child in our nation would have had access to quality schools like developed countries,” wrote Sisodia.
Sisodia wrote that the picture is visible and clear as day. “The politics of jail boosts the power of the ruling leader. However, the issue with the politics of education is that it empowers the nation, not the individual leader,” he added.
“In education, it takes a lot of effort to motivate children, parents, and teachers. In contrast, in prison politics, it is easy to pressure investigating agencies to send someone to jail. However, this approach does not work in the politics of education. Teachers cannot be forced to work under pressure or intimidation. They need respect and love to perform their duties efficiently. Leaders have always found it easier to achieve success in prison politics than in the politics of education,” he said.

“In Uttar Pradesh, a folk singer who expressed dissent was threatened with imprisonment by the government. Similarly, when a Congress spokesperson used a term that referenced Modi ji, the police in two states apprehended him like a movie scene. The reason Arvind Kejriwal ji is considered a criminal is because he has introduced a new form of politics that challenges Modi ji’s approach. As a result, two members of Kejriwal’s government are currently imprisoned,” he wrote.
Manish Sisodia was arrested on February 26 in an alleged excise policy scam case.
