People who talk about rights are often termed leftist and Maoist...

The loosely used terms in the present 'capitalist' based societies, for the people engaged in struggle for the rights are 'leftist', 'maoist', 'anarchist' and so on. The political class who is currently holding the development of nation, has rights over the resources often target the leaders belonging to particular group engaged in the fight for peoples rights. Recently even for those who wants to restore the constitutional rights in India often termed as 'maoist'. The leaders of the leading political parties during the election time often see a disturbing elements in normal course of political affairs. The urban uprising of the groups engaged in anti corruption activities are not looking for the straight political answers, and rather do not expect the parties to understand their political agenda. The regular parties are unable to understand the political motive, instead they also want the new group to have political ideologies in many cases similar to what they are offering. In no case they intend to deviate from the current political affairs. From national to regional parties no body expects the rights based group to succeed politically otherwise detrimental to current politics-corporate nexus.

The nature of protest against the establishment lead by a political group (established as an outcome of street struggle) emerges as talking point of not offering any political ideology. The establishment of constitutional guarantee and run up to protest does not qualify them to be people who can claim that they can run the country. People by themselves has to follow a political group to expect them to be desirous of being a representative in parliament is often opposed unless they follow the conventional political wisdom. The parties born out of street struggle would seldom be engaged in the running of the government, the clash of political groups in such a situation would bring instability. The case of Nepal is before us where such group after forming the governments also failed to get the constitution running unless they modified it.

The ideologies in such a situation rejects the oppression based social structure and political system, the poor and disadvantage groups in current political system are suppressed to take over the resources. The poor sharing of resources and state controlled by such political class often results in situation in which street protests are fueled. We in the due course would oversee the new loksabha election in India, 2014 would be landmark in the political history of India, when the street based people movement would get the political identity. This is going to destabalise the governance for some time or would force the main stream political parties to have socialistic agenda in the their political discourse.
