In the mid-1970s, a former Indian Army soldier declared war on illicit distilling and gambling in his village, Ralegaon Siddhi, in Maharashtra. Some liquor shops complied with Kishan Baburao Hazare's orders but for the rest, it was business as usual. Hazare decided to get tough when three drunkards from another village thrashed a local man.

thank you ravi prasad for giving a information and sending to a link...
He is more like a street fighter who is not scared of taking on anyone because he believes his cause is just. And he is a man of many causes. and anna says
"I will continue to fight for the people."

Really a great Person.
The story of Hazare ex soldier clearly explains that he is not as Gandhian as he looks presently. He belted the niscreants. Thus he used physical power for hisobject. This is Dadagiri and not Gandhian way.
probably he should be tough wid politicians in da same manner........not gandhan way.
Thank you Ravishankar Prasad for giving this information and the link
Whatever be it , the Anna Hazare's movement was a good one and govt had to bow before him.
