Indian democracy has showed signs of maturing and evolving. There was a 43% rise in the number of female voters in feudalistic UP. In Punjab the reformist incumbent is back to power for the first time in it's history. And SP or the Socialist Party that's close friends with top industrialists won 226 seats which is a record, apart from Indira frenzied UP from 1985.The man of the day is certainly Akhilesh Yadav, for reorienting his party to remain relevant in modern times. Those who do not change with the times, perish!Akhilesh studied in Dholpur Military School. Since his mother passed away at an early age, he was brought up by his grandmother. He had appeared in Karnataka Common Engineering Entrance Test in 1990 and secured a merit seat for Civil Engineering at SJC College of Engineering, Mysore. He was a sincere but average student. He used to travel by train. Neither his teachers nor most of his classmates knew he was the son of then UP CM. After his Engineering, he appeared in GRE exam and did MSc Environmental Engineering from University of Sydney (one of the top Universities for the course).Mulayam Singh, famous for OBC politics had strongly objected to Akhilesh's marriage with a Rajput girl. Going against his father's wishes, he married Dimple Singh, an Army officer's daughter. In 2009, she contested and lost a Lok Sabha seat to Raj Babbar. This spurted him into action and he undertook 3 yatras that will culminate in 10 Kalidas Marg tomorrow.He took some bold decisions such as keeping Dons out of the party and leaving caste-religion politics!One can draw several lessons. For one, no defeat is final. Every defeat is a good chance to throw out the old and usher in the new.Numbers are very important. For a politician, numbers are the seats; for a CEO it's the profits; for a student it's the marks; for a cricketer it's wicket/runs. Numbers quantify the results that define the perception of success or failure. Decisions get justified or criticised due to the number. If there the number is low, every step taken seems wrong. Akhilesh and Rahul Gandhi did similar things such as giving chance to youth but numbers changed the meaning of each!Bold decisions must be taken with conviction and must be followed up by action. Success of a decision is not only dependent on the decision itself but also on the action that follows it. Akhilesh had the conviction to remove dons, he took a risk but followed up with action such as aggressive campaigning!To be a leader, one has to relate to the followers. Not only should one understand the aspirations and pain, but feel it too. Akhilesh has gone thru the grind of today's youth, he connects better and hence could attract them.Akhilesh has silently been governing UP for the past four-and-a-half years.
