Actually if one chooses to enter politics one should not expect
to lead a normal life. One should be expected to be under public
scrutiny and ideally one should put public interest before self
interest and be committed to serve the people. Though these are
daunting challenges, if one is sincere and truly committed to the
noble ideas of serving the people and making life better for them,
these are worthwhile sacrifices.
