Kanshi Ram was a great leader, visionary and human being. I remember he once beat those idiot journolists. Other politicians feel the same abt them but he has a simple and true person. He could not hide his feelings for them. I think this just shows what a simplistic person he was; becasue in this business of politics one has to wear a shroud and hide his voilent and impulsive strains. I am sure he he would be as cunning as other politicians we have, he would be a prime minister; easily!
He did great work for the country and esp the people who think they are downtrodden. He tried to wake them from their sleep and show them that they are equal partners of this society and country. He succeeded to a good extent in wake these sleeping souls from their self-imposed comma and thus changed the whole political scene at the state and national level.
Only sad part of his life as I see is; his been kept as a kind of captive by his deciple. I am act. a fan of Mayawati also, except for this thing. Its not justified to keep ones mother and family members away from one. And there should be no good reason. Even she moved the cremation early to thaw any attempts for his body by his family.
