Re: Anna Hazare arrested by Delhi police ahead of today's fast.
It is the right time to capitalize on the mass hysteria and keep the momentum going unlike the first fast in April. If they let other two-faced parties like BJP take the initiative then all will again be lost.
As summed up on firstpost..

Re: Anna Hazare arrested by Delhi police ahead of today's fast.
^ I just read that pdf and it seems Govt's version is aimed solely at preventing anyone caught engaging in corruption from going to jail. They want the people who voice protests to go to jail in their place though.
Greed in politics knows no bounds!

Re: Anna Hazare arrested by Delhi police ahead of today's fast.
His intentions might be good, but I do not support the way he is doing not (not that I know which way would be better)
Saying that "I shall fast until death" is actually holding a country to ransom.
Saying that "If the government falls, so be it. We don't care" is trying to destroy the democracy in the country and pushing it into anarchy.
Saying that "Fill the jails by courting arrest" is a direct threat to the the country's citizens as instead of taking care of crimes that happen on the street, the police will have to babysit these people.
He is no Gandhi, he better realize that. This is not the 1940s where he can do what he wishes. This is a sovereign, democratic and independent nation which is also one of the biggest powers in the world.
People support him as if they have never bribed a soul in their life to get something they want or get away from a tight stop.
This is just Hippocratic to say the least.
If UPA goes, NDA will come. They will do the same or be worse. As it is NDA is a Hindu centric alliance. They would do more harm than good.
Why can't people understand that the only reason things are not going ahead is because the opposition are idiots. Not letting the parliament do its job.
You can't freaking run before you crawl.
We have got to stand together and not try and destroy each other. Thing will never move on smoothly this way.
Catalysts in this situation are bad, we need lubricants...

Re: Anna Hazare arrested by Delhi police ahead of today's fast.
There is no point sitting at TE and saying its unconstitutional...Its time we join hands in this second freedom struggle and free our country from Corruption...
Another disappointing point is that Anna Hazare is in same Jail no 4 as Kalmadi while Kejriwala is in Jail No 1 same as A.Raja.
This is dictatorship!
Time to unite and show what Democracy is! What say guys?
@Mods: Feel free to delete this post if felt offensive...no warnings needed

Re: Anna Hazare arrested by Delhi police ahead of today's fast.
Are Kiran Bedi, Justic Hegde, Bhushan & Kejriwal foolish to support Anna blindly?
You few just oppos Anna becuase NDA stood in support of Anna but at same time YOU ignore that ANNA "Fight Against Corruption" & not for VOTE & wanted to seat in Parliament & though he seats in parliament I'm sure will do lot better than our film stars & those yadavs & singhs.
Hamam main sabhi nangey hain mere bhai

Re: Anna Hazare arrested by Delhi police ahead of today's fast.
What do ppl want ? more accountability & transparency.
Simple as that.
A good question to ask is why do ppl think lok pal is the best vehicle with which to achieve this.
What are the alternatives

only corroborating fact i have is support for him would be strongest from that state given his active invovlement in issues there over the years. So the idea of putting him in jail can be a very emotional issue for some. This is the problem when ppl become larger than life.
I appreciate that generalisations are usually bad form & weak.

Re: Anna Hazare arrested by Delhi police ahead of today's fast.
^^ I disagree with almost as much of the stuff mentioned in the Jan Lokpal bill as with the things in the Govt's Draft. Eg: I think the Govt is right in restricting the lokpal to just the centre - there are already plenty of rules and agencies already made to redress grievances against govt officials already. However, I feel there is a need to have a separate independent body to address complaints against the elected repersentatives who need to have far more accountability to the people than an employee.
All your comment does is give credence to blr_p's claim about father figures
tbh at this point I'm so paranoid about stuff like this I'll even believe it if somone says all this drama is a charade being played out by Govt, Hazare and opposition all in collusion

Re: Anna Hazare arrested by Delhi police ahead of today's fast.
Actually its opposite, I wonder why some people here think that he is getting support because of so called "father figure" status in Maharashtra.
That is completely false statement to begin with.
Most people from the urban maharashtra wouldnt have even known about Hazare until recently with his RTI and now Lokpal movement. All his work concentrated on the problems faced by rural populations. Even the high profile sugar mafia bust was from rural area. The reason he gets such support is because he stands behind nothing but the truth and welfare of common man. Nothing else.
Unlike many pseudo activists who spend hours in front of camera and working in urban areas, this man has actually done something for rural Maharashtra. And even government of Maharashtra (that included both NDA and congress ) couldnt not sling mud on him because there was nothing to defame him with.
Dont be blind sided because NDA is trying to benefit from current situation. Its what these all parties do. Look what UPA is doing in UP. When they see chinks in the armor of opposite party, they will home in for the kill
If you are questioning him because of your paranoia, its your problem and I feel sorry for you, but you and few others are judging others because they support him and are going to lengths of accusing people of regionalism.
P.S. I am not Maharashtrian either. I am from GOA BTW
