59. Checklist for Joining Politics


From a student’s notes (Party Politics, Paper III – Introduction to Daily Politics):

Checklist for joining politics

ü  Financial support from the family (at least for the first 5 years)
ü  No declared girlfriend – opposition can try to take adv. 
ü  If after 30, then a wife is preferred – settled family has good character value
ü  If devorcee, offer late evening services – ‘nobody to go back to’…it generates sympathy instead of derision
ü  Family connection – if you want to go beyond putting up posters.
ü  24/7 availability
ü  Ability to execute given tasks with utmost passion and vehemence
ü  Capability of hero worshipping – can start practicing with film stars etc
ü  Literacy – to read and understand from newspapers when the time has come to change the party
