योगेन्द्र यादव : व्यक्तित्व और कृतित्व

सामयिक वार्ता के संपादक एवं देश के मशहूर राजनीतिक विश्लेषक योगेन्द्र यादव लोकतंत्र के शास्त्र को नये सिरे से गढ़ने और उसे देखने का नजरिया बदलने पर जोर देते हैं. आज भारत में युवाओं का बड़ा महिमामंडन हो रहा है । ७१% नौजवानों की आबादी वाले राष्ट्र में युवाओ की राजनीतिक स्थिति पर चुनाव विश्लेषक योगेन्द्र यादव ने एक सटीक प्रश्न उठाया है कि "क्या सचमुच इस देश में ऐसा नौजवान युवा वर्ग मौजूद है जो अपने बूते राजनीति-चुनावों की दिशा तय कर सके ? जब मैं देखता हूँ कि राहुल नाम का एक लड़का जो गमले का फूल है, हजारों कांग्रेसी युवा कार्यकर्ताओं के अधिकारों को रौंदता हुआ मात्र वंशवाद के बूते प्रधानमंत्री के पद की ओर मूविंग चेयर पर बिठाकर बढाया जा रहा है । पूरी कांग्रेस में एक भी भगत सिंह नही है , जो इस वंश गुलामी का विरोध कर कार्यकर्त्ता की मर्यादा की प्रतिष्ठा करे ? " आज 'यदुकुल' में ऐसे ही तेवरों वाले योगेन्द्र यादव जी के बारे में जानिए-
