mister Asif ka Delhi se sawal hai. unhon ne likha hai: "rajneeti sirf ladai aur mat bhed ka zariya hai. kyunke rajneeti mein insaan ek doosre ke against bolta hai. to rajneeti sahi kaise ho sakti hai?" to main sahi kahan karoon? main to kabhi nahi kaha ke sahi hai. maulana, shayad woh general level pe poochna chah rahe hain ke political system jo hai, woh sahi kaise ho sakta hai? political system ko sahi karne ki koshish mat kijiye. jo hai, us ko accept kar lijiye. mera to nazariya yahi hai. jab aap system ko sahi karna chahenge to kya hoga?
