While writing about Baba Ramdev's agitation and the way the Govt. suppressed it, I wrote that I will write about politics. But I did not. Many things happened. Anti-corruption crusader and Gandhian Anna Hazare went ahead with his fast. I thought just by blogging and supporting him through my blog I am not doing justice to the movement. So I joined the India Against corruption movement and became the City contact.
Action speaks louder than words. We conducted many programs. When Anna got arrested we protested. When Anna successfully concluded the fast after assurances from Govt. we took out a Victory March.
Now the Team Anna is being accused of silly faults and they are so trivial compared to the normal crimes people do. I think there is a deliberate attempt by some parties and Media is playing to the galleries for them. If one has to be very clean - an 100 % perfect person - to point out corruption in the govt. , then I am afraid there will not be single person left in India to raise his finger. We live in a corrupt society. We all know where all we falter. So in my opinion the General good is to be looked into. The Janlokpal Bill is one such thing. Passing of it will eliminate corruption in Govt. to certain extent. Then slowly all other things should come into the stream. Somewhere we need a start.
We have formed an "Azhimathi Virudha Janakeeya Samithi" ( People's forum to fight against corruption) in Calicut city. We have now many enthusiastic supporters. Lets see how far it goes.
