1. Who is Anna Hazare?
An ex-army man. Fought 1965 Indo-Pak War
2. What's so special about him?
He built a village Ralegaon Siddhi in Ahamad Nagar district,Maharashtra
3. So what?
This village is a self-sustained model village. Energy isproduced in the village itself from solar power, biofuel and wind mills.
In 1975, it used to be a poverty clad village. Now it is one ofthe richest village in India. It has become a model for self-sustained,eco-friendly & harmonic village.
4. Ok,...?
This guy, Anna Hazare was awarded Padma Bhushan and is a knownfigure for his social activities.
5. Really, what is he fighting for?
He is supporting a cause, the amendment of a law to curbcorruption in India.
6. How that can be possible?
He is advocating for a Bill, The Jan Lokpal Bill (The CitizenOmbudsman Bill), that will form an autonomous authority who will makepoliticians (ministers), beurocrats (IAS/IPS) accountable for their deeds.
8. It's an entirely new thing right..?
In 1972, the bill was proposed by then Law minister Mr. ShantiBhushan. Since then it has been neglected by the politicians and some aretrying to change the bill to suit their theft (corruption).
7. Oh.. He is going on a hunger strike for that whole thing ofpassing a Bill ! How can that be possible in such a short span of time?
The first thing he is asking for is: the government should comeforward and announce that the bill is going to be passed.
Next, they make a joint committee to DRAFT the JAN LOKPAL BILL.50% government participation and 50% public participation. Because you can’ttrust the government entirely for making such a bill which does not suit them.
8. Fine, What will happen when this bill is passed?
A LokPal will be appointed at the centre. He will have anautonomous charge, say like the Election Commission of India. In each and everystate, Lokayukta will be appointed. The job is to bring all alleged party totrial in case of corruptions within 1 year. Within 2 years, the guilty will bepunished. Not like, Bofors scam or Bhopal Gas Tragedy case, that has been goingfor last 25 years without any result.
9. Is he alone? Who else is there in the fight with Anna Hazare?
Baba Ramdev, Ex. IPS Kiran Bedi, Social Activist Swami Agnivesh,RTI activist Arvind Kejriwal and many more.
Prominent personalities like Aamir Khan is supporting his cause.
10. Ok, got it. What can I do?
At least we can spread the message..
