Fasting as a tool to acheive your goals

Chandra Babu Naidu undertook a Fast to force Congress Government in Andhra Pradesh give a better deal to farmers.I saw him on a bed in the hosp and I did not like him lying on the bed suffering, and I stopped watching Telugu TV channels on my IPad. I do not like this fasting business as this become either a big Tamasha or coercive on the opponent.Rational discussion,merits and demerits goes out of the window. Emotional young people committing violent acts on the streets or committing suicide do not create proper atmosphere for right decisions.I think political leaders should stop this fasting business.
