Anna hazare has again threatened for agitation on Lok Pal issue. Bujt is the campaign not stale now. Many players have gone to AAm Party camp. Now anna is with new set of players including ex army chief. For Indian people, such campaigns are like movie shows. People are less likely to be attracted to him second time. Even the movie shows do not run for indefinite period.

I am agreed, Anna will not get any benefit with this campaign.
I feel Anna has full right to make public aware about their rights. Even I can go and protest by such agitations, after all we are living in a democracy that allows us to express our feelings in a peaceful way with in law.
Nobody denies Anna or any one else to agitate. But nobody can compel parliament to frame law in certain manner just by gathering mob. Most of anna team have already left him and some even formed a political party contrary to earlier stand. Now the theme is whether his movement is not stale and meaningless and is there any chance of success.

In India every one have right to protest including Anna.But after last agitations Anna lost confidence of public. Like others the one point agenda of old Anna party is to join politics of vote. Anna will not get enough support of public in this time.

It's only an awareness program, I do not think anyone can compel governments to change their law. Anna himself got rid of people who wanted to go political way and that speaks volumes about his character. That shows he is not power hungry.

I agree that anna changed the men who did not go the way he desired. anna changes his team periodically. Anna needs consider that when he cannot get suitable persons for his own campaign, which is voluntary, how can Prime minister get suitable persons for good governance and removing corruption, when his hands are more tied and he has to bow to the collective will of people reflected in parliamentary elections.

But there is no harm in trying, both Anna and PM will have to keep trying unless they get suitable and competent persons who can accomplish the purpose of corruption free government that delivers the goods.
Why do you think that Lokpal issue is a stale issue? Why don’t you think Anna’s campaign as a reminder to the people about their rights? How many years it took for Mahatma to convince the people that ‘Freedom’ is their birth right ? I appreciate Anna’s relentless efforts to inject into the minds of the people about their rights . The fact that he’s on with his mission despite losing followers is a shining example of his selflessness.

Making people aware of their rights is different from blackmailing parliament by gathering mobs for passing a particular piece of legislation as dictated from Jantar mantar or Ram Lila Ground. Moreover the so called anti corruption forum does not exclude the corrupt elements. Even the teachers involved in mass copying contracts and others similarly placed join the mobs burning candle in day time. In fact, it is the poor who suffer from corruption. The richer people are benefited as they can afford to pay extra for services that otherwise could be bagged by poorer people by being ahead in queue.

If fighting for a just cause is black mailing, then Sunderlal Bahuguna is also a black mailer who fought against deforestation relentlessly in his 'Chipko Moment' that forced the parliament frame a law against deforestation..

Sundelal Bahuguna made genuine demand for preservation of forests and nature. He did not draft a law and blackmail parliament to adopt what he proposed.

He might not have made a draft, but Sunderlal Bahuguna made his intentions very clear how the law should be. In the case of Anna, if he has made a draft, its with the intention to help the government. . The government can always change or make some amendments in the draft by sitting together with Anna. The fact is government will not like if some commoner like Anna suggests something. And as a consequence suggestions are dubbed as Diktats.

I do not understand the logic of government sitting with anna for making some law. It is parliamentarians job to make law. all others are equal. Anyone may suggest change in law. In fact the concerned ministries offer suggestions when an important piece of legislation is contemplated. Suggestions are received from many sources and those considered suitable included. But nobody has the right to pressurize or blackmail or bully parliament and government by gathering mobs at jantar mantar. Mobocracy is not democracy.

Parliament, before introducing the act will consult the representatives of the people. And few prominent social workers, including opposition leaders and commoners. That’s what’s going right now in the case of a separate statehood for TELENGANA. Digvijay singh, stayed in Hyderabad for 3 days and invited opinions from all walks of life for and against to Telangana before introducing the move in Parliament. This is the procedure in a democratic setup. Digvijay singh never dubbed any of the suggestions as ‘Dictats’. Because, they were all suggestions.
Now, coming to the present context, I would like to ask, why the same procedure and modalities were not followed in Lokpal case? in what way Anna’s suggestion can be dubbed as a ‘Diktat’? Did anyone had a one to one dialogue with Anna?. No. That’s why, he expressed his views from an open platform, which by all means is a right granted to him by the constitution.
Acid test is the 2014 elections. People are fed up with the current political scenario. Change is required. People have to decide who is who, but do the people have the time
If people do not have time for their own self, then no one is going to save them. Anna can only remind them but it's people who shall have to act and do the needful.

Sure. You can show water to the horse.. The drinking part should be done by the horse itself.

True! To enable everyone to participate in the voting procedure, all government employees and some private ones too give a holiday on day of the elections. Private sector too allows half day to their employees so they can participate in it, but sadly majority of people treat this as a holiday and indulge in leisure activities and stay away from polls!

No sir to majority of people only upper middle class and upper class people don't like to vote. then don't like to stay in Q to vote. Lower class and middle class much aware.

If they withdraw holiday on polling day, everyone in jobs would want to vote. They find different way to spend the day leisurely.
