What do others say of Arvind Kejriwal

What do others think of Arvind Kejriwal? Here is what George Lobo, who now lives in the USA and a batchmate of Arvind at IIT Kharagpur has to say...

George Lobo NY, USA..I know Arvind since our IIT Days when he was doing his Mechanical Engineering Degree.

Since I know the man like the back of my hand, it really pains me in reading all these misinformed opinions of him.

He is one of the most intelligent & knowledgeable person I have come across in my life & definitely the most selfless & honest.

In those IIT Days also, while we all were thinking about our career & thinking of leaving India at the 1st opportunity, he was hell bent on doing something to change the face of India.

He was a big fan of V.P. Singh those days & was very inspired with his honesty (bofors) & efforts to achieve social justice (mandal commission).

He was almost a non-believer & hated BJP for the mandir movement.

Whoever is accusing him to be a RSS/BJP agent has no idea what he/she is talking about.Those doubting his honesty/integrity should be informed that he was Joint Commissioner, Income Tax Dept in Delhi when he resigned from IRS. By conservative estimates, officer of this rank in Delhi/Mumbai makes at least Rs. 1 crore per month from external sources (you can make out what these external sources can be). How many of us can dedicate our life to the nation when such a lucrative career is in front of us? I am making USD 125000/month here & he was 10 times brighter than me.

I appeal to all Indians (irrespective of caste/religion) to not let go of this chance to reclaim our country from these corrupt politicians. It is because of our "Chalta Hai" & "Don't Care" attitude that things have come to this.And lastly, if you can't do anything for the country, at least please don't accuse Kejriwal of being communal/ arrogant/ dishonest without checking the facts.

We all batchmates (belonging to various castes/ religions) believe that if India can elect 100 leaders like Kejriwal to the Parliament, the country will be counted among the best in 10 years time.
