Kanimozhi plunges into Politics

MKs daughter has been given a much expected political entry and is slated to start as a Member of Parliament in the Rajya Sabha next week. I personally am a person who hates that party she would be representing in the House, the DMK. Whatever has been spoken about her entry in the Political arena and how-much-ever negatives of the Family Politics is brought forward by the opponents using this opportunity, I would like to wish her all success here. I have had a chance to read a couple of interviews and watch a couple of her interviews on the web. I have also had an opportunity of visiting the website she runs with Karthik Chidambaram (karuthu.com), which kind of popularized even before the Social Networking Revolution over the Internet for exchanging constructive thoughts in a stream-lined manner among level headed people. The way in which she responds to controversial questions and the way in which she answers to every question in a calm and composed manner tells me that she is in Politics to stay and these are the kind of people who we need to transform Indian Politics into a good space. I'm pretty sure that she would respect the thoughts of her opponents if it needs to and she knows the way to put forward counter-statements as well without practicing the cheaper version of Politics. I'm a hundred per cent sure that there might be a lot of situations where she would differ from her party's stand and I'm interestingly looking forward to the way in which she would respond and the way in which the party would respond to her as well... Anyways, I take this opportunity in wishing her on a great opportunity ahead to voice her genuine concerns of the society in the parliament...
