Hi guys,
I accept what you are all saying. It is very happy news
that Anna got victory and too ourselfs. It just like we all got one
more Independence through "Sathyagraha". Just being happy alone is not
our part of this. Everybody still need to work through it to stop the
corruption completely.Why I am saying this sentence is because I
heared a voice of a passerby that 'every rules and regulations, law
and order, etc.,are only a hide and seek game.Nothing will be helpful
to poor public. Without giving money,we can't do anything here'.So
that, some people are having attitude that without corruption nothing
cannot be done.I do know that whether the understood or realise what
had happen these 12 days in our country. It is a great question that
whether they will utilise thes things?.These 12 days was a horrible
days to our 'Anna' and it wil turn into honour only if his policy was
followed.
