Anna Hazare and his movement against corruption
He might
not have influenced the Indians as the great freedom fighter Mahatma Gandhi
did, but he surely has won many hearts. People don’t agree with some of his
ideologies but at the age of 73 years people admire his enthusiasm and selfless devotion to eradicate
corruption from the Indian society. His true words and his speech inspire
people to think what they have done for the society or for the Indians.
He is the
man who once again bought the nation together and forced the people to act and
bring revolution. In the fight for removal of corruption, he went on a 13 day
hunger strike followed by his arrest. He the man with a Gandhi topi believes
that if people of India come together then Jan Lokpal bill will bring a change
in their lives. His name ‘Anna’ stands for big bother.
People of
India should support his movement and initiative as he is the man who is
fighting for our rights and better living. At this age also he is ready to fast
till death. When he was arrested, thousands of people protested by marching.
Around 1300 supporters were detained also.
The Jan Lokpal
bill is a draft-anti-corruption bill which is currently being passed in Lok
Sabha by the efforts of Anna Hazare. Through people’s support only this
movement was a success. Corrupt people don’t support him and his movement as
they think he is a fake personality and is only gaining sympathy and media
coverage. Almost everyone is corrupt in India. Ordinary people pay bribe for
not getting arrested, for getting their work done fast. But this is harming our
country’s development. Removal of corruption itself can solve almost every
problem faced by our country. Let’s support him for a corrupt free nation.
