Anna - Tuje salaam.

Hats off to Anna Hazare - http://ibnlive.in.com/news/i-can-fast-for-nine-more-days-anna-hazare/178274-3.html, for his positive attitude and spirit towards a noble cause

Many counter view points are being raised like..

• whether someone can try to blackmail or subvert the government?
• whether jan lokpal is the panacea of all ills?
• How many diff kinds of corruptions will this solve
• Is Anna and his team "clean"?
• At the end of it will it give a wrong chance for Congress to come up as Mr. Clean?

and lots more...........

Sadly these are raised by many intellectuals too, who are misguided or blinded to the important and bigger implications

• Corruption in India over the last 10 years or so has graduated to astronomical proportions - Jewels like Common Wealth, 2G Spectrum, Adharsh, Others Mega ones like Madhu Koda's thousands of Crores, Mining scams in Karnataka, Land grabbing everywhere, Many many more
• In recent times, the Corrupt has really become bold and arrogant - With a superior-than-thou tone - e.g. zero loss in 2G and CAG is just human to make mistakes.
• People in power are ready to sell India - Its land, Mines, forests, coasts, Spectrum, Any resources - for peanuts just to make a few crore rupees for themselves
• For them Public resources, public money is their money
• There will be nothing left in a few decades for the General public/Aam Aadmi

So, the questions that are of importance are

• Do we need anything left for our future or future generations?
• Do we need to put in some fear factor on the corrupt?
• Do we hope for a period where things happen in a open,transparent and clean manner (without bribe/commissions/cuttings/dealings) ?

Apart from all of the above, Anna has given a hope that one man can make a difference. Persistence does bring in good results. Kudos to him and Prayers for his good health.
