Congratulations, Mr Agarwal. However I do not share your enthusiasm about combining mathematics and politics. One reason is that mathematics is based on reason and logic, while you have shun both to be successful in politics. Mathematical modeling techniques in politics would work only in an ideal scenario when the entire humanity has the same (or at least exactly predictable) level of information, knowledge and rationality. Till then, emotions and perceptions would rule the world of politics.

In any case, good luck!!!
