If you think that a People's man cannot be a politician then you have clearly lost your faith in the democracy. the whole point of democracy is that a peoples man becomes the leader - unfortunately in india that concept has been lost but hazare has a unique opportunity to bring it back - trust...
in those days india was not democratic and these were the only options( and they too had bad consequences ), now whats stopping hazare from forming his party and contesting elections - if he loses then he is opposition and can question the govt on its every move and if he wins he can get his own...
if the govt doesnt take him seriously then whats stopping him from forming his own political party and contesting elections and hence truly proving whether he has majority support or not???
this is a democracy - he has every right to do exactly what i have stated and with his current popularity...
who included chemists and hospitals in strikes - they should always be left out. and every method will have consequences - gandhian involved people protesting against the british and to boycott govt jobs, colleges etc - leaving thousands of people with no access to education and no jobs hence no...
I suggested constant demands and the odd one day protest which will not have a huge impact on the economy( thus cannot be called blackmail ) but will bring in the media and that is what matters. this is the media era not gandhian.
Anna is all well and good and his motivations are all noble - but his methods at least in this case are wrong - whats to stop people like ramdev who just care for themselves and their own political ambitions to use these same methods against the govt if hazare succeeds.
Again and again I have to repeat - these are not Gandhian times - the govt is not a foreign invader but chosen by us. about the 50% voting - thats hardly the govt's fault is it?? its people like us who are too lazy to go stand in long lines to vote who should answer for that figure. - if you are...
these are not gandian times - this is modern india where the govt is not a foreign invader but chosen by our own people - to think that the old methods still apply is completely wrong. And please I am not disputing hazare's right to protest or to raise demands but rather his methods which force...
Unfortunate for you then cause you are an indian and in india only people who are chosen by the people will ever come to power ( kinda comes with the whole democracy package )
I suggest constant demands and the odd one day strikes and protests - to say that you will not eat until the govt starts to listen to you( or you die )is classical description of blackmail.
And we are no longer living in gandhian times - the govt may have faults but it cannot be compared to the...
I said he's doing it for the right reasons but his means are questionable..... the government has won free and fair elections - that is to say that the people have chosen the govt - who has chosen hazare?? what he is doing is basically forcing the govt to act else he will continue his fast unto...
though he is doing it for the right reasons anna hazare is basically blackmailing the govt. which has proven majority support of the population.
The ends do no not justify the means.
hahahahahahaha - Good one Iran!!!!
but seriously - UK is not using enough force - they should bring out the water cannons and rubber bullets and tear gas shells.
If that fails follow China's example of tiananmen square.
wasnt there news that the mod was reviewing the price of mmrca?? The new price is 63000 crore(14.3 billion). So mod is actually willing to pay 113 million per plane - doesnt this rule out the eft as its price is quoted as 125 million????
