    Anna Hajare - 71 year old social activist is on fast until death, protesting against the corruption and unbiased, error-free Lokpal Bill amendments. I wish to know how many engineers from India support Anna'? If you are a supporter, reply to this post and tell everyone why are you supporting him.

    I support him. The corruption in India is a very serious problem and it need to be removed. Although i don't agree with his method on fasting till death, but if he succeeded in getting the Jan Lokpal bill from parliament, then it will be a huge step. Hope at least now this government will understand how much this country is worried about corruption.

    Good to see engineers taking interest in this initiative. How many engineers are aware of the Jan Lokpal Bill? :)

    Salient features of Jan Lokpal Bill

    Drafted by Justice Santosh Hegde, Prashant Bhushan and Arvind Kejriwal, this Bill has been refined on the basis of feedback received from public on website and after series of public consultations. It has also been vetted by and is supported by Shanti Bhushan, J M Lyngdoh, Kiran Bedi, Anna Hazare etc. It was sent to the PM and all CMs on 1st December.



    1. An institution called LOKPAL at the centre and LOKAYUKTA in each state will be set up
    2. Like Supreme Court and Election Commission, they will be completely independent of the governments. No minister or bureaucrat will be able to influence their investigations.
    3. Cases against corrupt people will not linger on for years anymore: Investigations in any case will have to be completed in one year. Trial should be completed in next one year so that the corrupt politician, officer or judge is sent to jail within two years.
    4. The loss that a corrupt person caused to the government will be recovered at the time of conviction.
    5. How will it help a common citizen: If any work of any citizen is not done in prescribed time in any government office, Lokpal will impose financial penalty on guilty officers, which will be given as compensation to the complainant.
    6. So, you could approach Lokpal if your ration card or passport or voter card is not being made or if police is not registering your case or any other work is not being done in prescribed time. Lokpal will have to get it done in a month’s time. You could also report any case of corruption to Lokpal like ration being siphoned off, poor quality roads been constructed or panchayat funds being siphoned off. Lokpal will have to complete its investigations in a year, trial will be over in next one year and the guilty will go to jail within two years.
    7. But won’t the government appoint corrupt and weak people as Lokpal members? That won’t be possible because its members will be selected by judges, citizens and constitutional authorities and not by politicians, through a completely transparent and participatory process.
    8. What if some officer in Lokpal becomes corrupt? The entire functioning of Lokpal/ Lokayukta will be completely transparent. Any complaint against any officer of Lokpal shall be investigated and the officer dismissed within two months.
    9. What will happen to existing anti-corruption agencies? CVC, departmental vigilance and anti-corruption branch of CBI will be merged into Lokpal. Lokpal will have complete powers and machinery to independently investigate and prosecute any officer, judge or politician.

    My complete support is with Anna Hajare.:)
    Not just us, many people from other cities also supporting Anna through their own ways.
    I don't know from where he is getting this much strength to fight. But I wish that his efforts become successful. He has really created the awareness among many. Now its our turn to put our efforts to stop the corruption.

    PS: Great work Freak. Thank you for sharing.

    Thank you freak.

    In my opinion, if we really want to support Anna Hazare, we should spread the message through words (by speaking out) among all those who have wrong impression of the politicians (I mean their supporters).
    Lighting candles doesn't serve any purpose. We should support his cause by knowing the reason behind and think twice before shooing away the traffic policeman by thrusting a 100 rupee note in his hand.

    It feels nice to see people churning out their support for Anna. Yes he is fighting against a corrupt system...But does it seem the right time for the agitation? He should have waited for some time at least for the amendments to the Lokpal Bill which were expected within a fortnight or so... Still nothing wrong... It was going to happen anyways...
    P.S. Funny to see big celebrities and politicians having their share in the hype... Do you think any one of them knows where the nearest ration shop is located???
