Some battles are not only worth fighting but also imperative.
It is considered a leadership trait when a leader knows how to pick his or her battle. A trait that, often, comes with age for a common man who fights several battles every day in personal and professional lives. This seems to apply only to individuals though.
All governments and political parties, with all kinds of leaders, believe that they need to fight every battle that comes their way (and sometimes out of the way too) to showcase their supremacy and dominance in politics and governance. Equipped with all the ammunition, they fight tooth and nail to win over their opponents. They may strategise, intimidate, enforce, deceive, curtail and go to any length to win. They may even wrestle with opponents in a non-level playing field.
