We want second Independence day For India, Independence from corruption

June 7, 2012 | Filed under: Your Opinion | Posted by: Disha Bhatia

We remember the day, when Anna first started Hunger strike on 5^th April 2011, for the Jan Lokpal Bill, for the institution of ombudsman with the power to deal with corruption in public places. The fast led to nationwide protests in support. The fast was ended on 9^th April, 2011, a day after government accepted Anna Hazare’s demand. On that time, India was adorned with the bloom of feelings against national corruption activities. From child of 9 to a lady of 89, everyone was in blended in the colors of Anna Hazare’s protest.

Anna’s fast gained popularity hastily as it was the matter of public’s self interest. Everyone was thinking that Anna’s every demand will be fulfilled and India will be SONE KI CHIDIYA again.

But nothing has changed, The Government did not accept any of Team Anna’s wish, and created their own dwindled Lokpal for the end of corruption from society.

After so many peaceful protests, nation raising their voice, coming together, nothing has happened. People like A. Raja are still working in governance authority. If such people would always be in the system, then who will bring the change, and bring the black money back to India? Simply no hope!!

After an ultimate end of public’s hope, Anna is again ready for another annshan. Now Anna is not alone, he is with the world famous Yoga guru Swami Ramdev. On 2^nd June, they launched a scathing attack on the UPA government. “We need to bring back black money. I appeal to people of the country to join this fight. We are intensifying this fight. From today, we are intensifying our protest to bring back black money stashed abroad and want all of the countrymen to be part of the fight to finish by August,” they said after paying tributes to Netaji Subhash Chandra Bose at Azad Hind Gram. They said it’s just a beginning of our protest.

This is the first time Team Anna and Ramdev are sitting on a joint fast.

Anna hazare, Ramdev, Kiran bedi, Arvind kejriwal and other Anna’s supporters are fighting against corruption which is spread all over in India. All these great personalities are not fighting for their self interest , but they have taken their steps forward to start second Independence war from Corruption.

Well everyone is waiting for the same united wish of corruption free India to come true. Hope this time they will acquire their wish, and Indians will be able to celebrate the second Independence Day, A Corruption free day.
