ANNA-GLYPH - The Black and White of it...

Before jumping to the point, I would like to take you all in your past... When we were little kids, we often made irrelevant demands of bootless and stupid toys from our parents. On being out rightly refused, we often threw tantrums of different sorts - which included shunning the scrumptious food, keeping ourselves locked up in the room for hours, or crying and blackmailing our parents. When we crossed our limits, and continued our stupid and childish acts of conniption, we were often gifted with a tight slap across our sweet little faces... and? And the matter ended there and then... :P

Coming to the point now, what made me nostalgic was Anna Hazare's behaviour. Declaring a fast until all your demands are met and disrupting the normal functioning of the nation along with earning a free footage of 24 hour news channels seems to be the most futile attempt at something so grave. The thousands of people coming together against "corruption", do not even know what basically Jan Lokpal bill is... I made this point in my last post too and I make it yet again, that is fasting until death and throwing tantrums, the only solution to a problem so grave. Is Jan Lokpal Bill, a magic wand, which will eradicate the deep rooted problems in a  jiffy?   

Or is it correct to force the Bill on the parliament and other 122 crores of people across the nation. I would rather say, putting forward the demands in the way Aruna Roy did, would be much better, democratic and peaceful. 

Another things is that I have actually met people so lame and stupid, that they think if I am not in support of Anna Hazare, and if I am not taking to the streets and shouting slogans on top of my breath, then I am a corrupt person, who supports the government. First of all, since when has this movement become a Team Anna v/s The Ruling party war room? Team Anna's only demand  is Jan Lokpal Bill, and I would like everyone to read the JLB draft of Team Anna, just to look at how frivolous it is, and it is just like creating another bulky and unmanageable system for the country to cope up with. I do not support the stand or the statements of the government, nor do I disrespect Anna, or doubt his 'genuine' intentions (despite the fact, that  it was found that he once spent Rs. 20 Lakhs on his birthday celebrations, he was found drinking milk shake with dry fruits in one of his earlier fasts, and the fact that he was guilty of maladministration in two public trusts), my point remains that who is going to profit from a massive and berserk bill, which is being forced by Team Anna. 

Finally, a little note to various people/groups:-

Team Anna - You guys are not the only intelligent people left in the country to make laws. Please listen to others and give them a chance. Other people (read: Aruna Roy or JP) might have something better to offer too. 

Anna Hazare - Stop being a puppet in the hands of Arvind Kejriwal, and please stop creating a chaos in the country. 

Congress - You guys are famous for holding double standards since ages. Its time to wake up, please come out of your dreams, and take actions. 

Dr. Manmohan Singh - Just because you have stupid colleagues doesn't mean that you start behaving like one too. You and Anna share things in common - you both are puppets, to start with... ;)

Rahul Gandhi - God gifted you with something beneath the nose, guarded by 32 teeth... USE IT...

Followers of Anna Hazare and People of my nation - (I am repeating this from my previous post) - think for yourself and do not depend on a law to change things. Be the change and change your own mindsets... then talk about an "India against corruption".... 

(I hope this particular blog post reaches far and wide and urge people to know more about something that they are following, or maybe just serve as a wake up call)

Adios!
