Σύνοψη: | Today, political life has become synonymous with corruption. Everyone seems to justify corruption as a world-wide phenomenon. All the politicians try to encash their service and sacrifice. Patriotism for many has become a sense of egotism lending to self-aggrandizement. But at least for a precious few it is always a mission to cleanse the Aegean stables of corruption, nepotism, and bigotry. When occasions present themselves, they come to the forefront to resist evils, and take the side of the oppressed for their liberation. Such people are not deterred by any institution or imprisoned by an ideology. With an open mind, they address themselves to the situation. Such a person was Jayaprakash Narayan. At time when the freedom of India was in peril, anguished by the suffering of the people, Jayaprakash plunged into action at the later stage of his life. A fighter throughout his life and a man of ideology, with experience he had from the freedom struggle Jayapraksh launched a campaign of Total Revolution. In this paper, our attempt is to delineate the personality and convictions of Jayaprakash Narayan, how he contributed to the growth of revolutionary ideology in India. |
