View AAP with pragmatism and hope

.It is surprising that  seasoned dons  bemoan that AAP is still in  ' movement mode ' when it ought to be graduating to a party. Any  political  entity  that  eschews   constant movement ,be it in terms of  introspection  or dynamically moulding itself to external socio-political changes,loses the very ethos of its sustenance. Political pundits ought to herald  the welcome change in the big ticket entry of a party born out of value based tenets ,as the AAP professes to be, unlike parochial genesis of Shiv Sena, the class based Left and a plethora of  caste / creed oriented outfits that have brought our political discourse to such straits  .Identity crisis recurs in every party ,even far older ones, and that is part of growing up . An year old AAP too will  learn to cope and expand its potential.Political commentators must begin to worry when and if ,the AAP abandons the core content of its crusade of value based politics  vis a vis  public life, only to join the   divisive and opportune stream  that others have for long  managed  thrive in and in the process, contaminate.
