Thank you - Anna Hazare

"Hazare ended his 98-hour protest after the government issued a gazette notification constituting a 10-member Joint Committee of ministers and civil society activists, including him, to draft an effective Lokpal Bill."

A great achievement. A selfless gesture by a person, not for personal gain.

It was the kick start that everyone was waiting for. Although majority of the public suffers from corruption and wishes he/she could do something, the action was missing.

Thanks to Anna to have opened up a path, a way towards light at the end of the tunnel.

Corruption in India is not restricted to the major ones like 2G, Adharsh, Bofors or the other 100 well known ones. Corruption is part of day-to-day life - In Roads, hospitals, All government establishments, everywhere.
Corruption free India will be a much Safer and Happier place to live.

The few 1000s of politicians have become Corrupt and act blatantly, without any fear or hesitation. There is hope now that the Crores of voters can again be Masters over this small minority!

India Wins ICC world cup 2011


What a wonderful feeling. Indian team won the world cup after 1983. I still remember a few moments from that match

Micheal holding's runup from near the boundary line, Mohinder Amarnath's wickets going cartwheeling, Srikanths' pull, Greenidge shouldering up only to get bowled, Mohinder Amarnaths victory run and of course the Champagne and celebrations from the Lord's Pavilion

2011 is a great win. The team really went about winning in a no-nonsense way.
















Just like Spain in Soccer, it was good to see a "Clean" team winning the world cup.

And as an added feather in the cap, India went on to beat all the previous world cup winners in the correct order - Windies, Aussies, Pakistan and finally Srilanka.

Kudos - Indian team and Kudos Dhoni. Dhoni shone as a cool, controlled captain and the indian team played as a unit with a mission. Sachin thoroughly deserves this missing cup on his shelf.

Carry on and show the world how to play and win "Cleanly"!!!!!
