Dear Friends
Frankly speaking I am not a RTI activist. I am not a civil society
activist either. I am not an intellet
to argue and put forward my views on recent happenings over Anna
Hazare's campaign
against corruption.Just happened to see a mail sent by Shri Amitabh
Thakur replying to
one Shri. Dhirendra Krishna.
Every Indian wants to live in a corruption free India and
unfortunately its become part and
parcel of everybody's life. Anna stood for a common cause and somehow he won.
But all these days when the so called intellectuals, educationists,
reformists, RTI
activists were showing their anger against the government and I had watched the
arrogant attitudes of some of the civil society members. Crores of sms-es were
sent using derogotary words which one can ever think of. Yes these were sent
by the so called civil society members or by their over enthusiastic
supporters.Mails were
sent with obscene pictures involving the political leaders namely the
PM, Sonia, Kapil Sibbal
and Maneesh Tiwary etc. I was wondering is these the value based
principles which Shri
Anna stands for ? All these 12 days of tamasha almost all channels
were purely telecasting
minute to minute details of his fast and behaved like cheer leaders
and for that matter like an
Advertising agencies of Shri Anna and his other society members. Their
partisan attitude
is really questionable. Several hooligns were riding on motorcycles
waving National Flag
up and down and too without helmets. Pickpockets and rogues had field
day in Ram Lila ground.
Liquor flowed liberally and hooligans hooted the ladies. Several
youths openly claimed they didn't know
what purpose the come for. Some of them coolly said they want to
appear on the channels.
I was totally shocked when a former IPS officer knowingly or
unknowingly waved a torn
National Flag which action brought disrespect to our National Flag. Is
she really trained at Police
academy. She spat venom at politicians and behaved like a street thug.
Yes.. she is also a
member of civil society. When disrespect were shown to the National
Flag, these so called
Civil society watched these uncivilised attitude of their supporters
at the so called agitation. Yes, these corrupt minded
people corrupt the young mind and just to gain popularity they doomed
to such a low level.
What's the fun of having a Jashan at India Gate. Again hooligans ruled
the roost over there.
Whenever Mahatma Gandhi undertook fast and when he realised when the
crowd and supporters turned ugly
immediately he used to end fasting. Alas.. the so called Messiah or
hero as himself thundered
know what his movement done great damage to the society ? Or as usual
he simply ignored just
because the publicity he got from the Media, especially the electronic
Media. Is the change we were
looking for ? What punishment will people like Kiran Bedi get for
dishonouring the National Flag ?
Maximum punishment for showing disrespect to the National Flag I
believe is 5 Years. Is this
applies to former IPS officer like Kiran Bedi or else its just for the
commoners.
