Crtical thinking -----Need of the hour..

Today after attending the discussion of Rahul Gandhi, it is appearing that we really need the platform of critical thinking in our mind.
After attending the show, it seems to be that a lot of people became fan of Mr. Gandhi. But we really need to critically think and judge whatever he was telling, how far it was done or implemented. Even we can relate the same thing with Amartya Sen's critical voice which is the resultant of critical thinking through which empowerment can creep in.
Accepting what we are seeing or what we are hearing is very easy but the toughest job is to critcally think. It was appearing to be obvious that Rahul Gandhi was trying to spread the goodwill (not proved) of Youth Congress among the young minds. There is a difference between political thinking and critical thinking. He may be politically right but to how much degree he is accountable with his work is also under the scanner. It is very easy to say that " I am proud of everyparts of India"  to gain the soft corners of the masses, but difficult to prove it.
Whatever he tried to communicate to us , it was just the one side of the hill, which may not be in tune with other part.
So, this is my view about today's Rahul's session.....What do u say ????

I think we should not always be judgemental. The very fact that he started a discussion is very inportant.Generally politicians come give a long speech and go.But he started with discussion it shows he wants to interact and that itself is the beginning.He has his limitations as a politician as we have seen on many occasions he has been criticised for his bold comments. So we should welcome a young leader like him anf give him a chance.
