India Against Corruption march from Ramlila to Jantar Mantar
India Against Corruption
Had the Rs. 176,700 crores not been squandered in the 2G Scam, our country would now have enough revenue to wipe out half the fiscal deficit of our country, to improve the rural and urban economy of our country! Despite public outcry, no worthwhile investigations are going on. This is because of several systemic deficiencies in our anti-corruption systems. Institutions that have the freedom to act do not have the power to do so, while institutions, which have the power to act, do not have the freedom to do so.
India Against Corruption is a campaign, which is not aligned to or against any political party. We feel that every political party has misused its position whenever they have been in power or otherwise. Therefore, it is extremely important that the citizens of this country unite to demand systemic changes.
India Against Corruption is a movement of several concerned citizens of India who have come together (many more are joining in) to demand comprehensive reforms of anti-corruption systems in India. Art of Living & WAYE are supporting the movement to make the public aware of the menace and how the Lokpal bill can change the face of the nation, if it is passed in its totality.
What are we doing?
On 30th Jan, 2011, on the occasion of Martyrdom Day, there will be a march from the Ramlila Ground to Jantar Mantar demanding enactment of a law to set up an effective anti-corruption body called the Lokpal at the Centre and the Lokayukta in each State. Thousands of people will take to streets to demand effective anti-corruption law.
What can you do?
Spread the word. Talk to your friends and colleagues about this. Join us and express your solidarity to the nation. This is a citizens’ initiative and therefore requires every individual’s wholehearted support.
Want to know more about it?
Join us at IIT for a panel discussion on India Against Corruption, being addressed by Mr. Arvind Kejriwal and Dr. Kiran Bedi themselves, on 27th Jan 2011 at Dogra Hall, 5pm onwards.

narayana murthy@freak: well....................
i think your much concern to India development
but it is not possible until the people changes
if they changed too political interference also had very effects on it -
freak16NM we need someone to take the lead.
We ppl always afraid to take the intiative for such things as we saw in the movie s.
But need is that we need to change our self to change the world.. -
narayana murthybut who will take the lead
this is like a drainage who will come to clean
well coming to films they are made in concepts but they cant be made true because it is real life
i lisned many real stories about death of many officials who opposed corruption and being sincier -
freak16Yeah but Being Indian we have responsiblities towards our nation.
Let Live for Your nation and devote yourself to it -
narayana murthythose words are sweet to lisned but difficult to implement
-
freak16NM Why are so reluctant?
Cant we try our bit..
Take care of pennies and pound will take care of themselves -
narayana murthy@freak: we can be ourself avoid it
but remember one thing without giving money to them our work cant be done fast
check if you want if i am wrong just tell me -
freak16Sorry NM!
I didnot get your perspective. -
narayana murthy@freak: i mean to say is we cant make our work done by others without corruption thats the corruption level in India
it is in deep roots and in every blood of Indians
see here we are the only people who are against corruption
everyone dislikes corruption but for our living we need to go to for that
thats present position of India -
freak16I concede to you but we need to end this somehow and therefore this march is first step towards it..
Present generation are highly against it.a All my collegaues and friends are going for this march tommrow as we all are delhilites.. -
narayana murthyoh i think you are also going with them
anyway this is nice idea
take active participation
i also involve with it if such a program conducts at my place -
freak16Yes 😀
Thanks NM.. -
narayana murthyanytime my dear friend

Ankita Katdare@freak: I think it is a good initiative.
I am not sure if it will change anything. But I hope that people's Voice gets heard. -
Kaustubh KatdareThis thread should not be a part of CE Events section which is dedicated to engineering, tech and management related events. I'm moving it to CE Chit Chat section. Also, usage of any language other than English is strictly prohibited on CE. I request all CEans to follow the policy.

freak16Oh Sorry Biggie!
I seriously dont aware..
My apologies.. -
durga ch
every second person has the same persecptive. every second person gives a reason why someone needs to be bribed.be it to avoid higher fines or to get work done soon, or what ever. Have you ever tried to ask back for what you need to pay? sometimes its your own selfishness which is been taken rid for.narayana murthy@freak: we can be ourself avoid it
but remember one thing without giving money to them our work cant be done fast
check if you want if i am wrong just tell me
@ freak - I missed it here in Bangalore. Just read about it in paper. is there one in hyderabad? i could not find details on the website -
freak16It was not organised in hyderabad.
I went in march. I got to know the reality. It was fantastic and so many educated people was there.
People from iit delhi and my college Delhi college of engineering and nsit were present . I heard medha pathkar first time in my life and she thundered my mind. As in many people turned up.. I am not requesting anybody but think to you as a responsible citizen that if you cannot come then please
Msg
India your name your place
to number 09230534959
It will for a vote bank who support the lokpal bill -
narayana murthy@durga: it is not possible to ask because no one is right as i had seen up to now so, we cant blame one person or one authority for taking bribe it cant be change until the people and workers change
another reason for taking bribes i had observed is high costs for living
mostly salaries are less but standard of living is costly
in this case i support such people
where who dont harass for bribes
anyway costs is going higher reasons are known to all and if i give here it will completely goto another topic -
ISHAN TOPREHey NM,
I agree with you.I mean you are practical and all but why aren't you even trying to change.We can use tools like FB.All you need is to post it on your wall,isn't it? 😀 -
narayana murthyi think there is no use of it
-
nebulaHmm interesting debate on corruption...my two cents are that the problem is really the never ending cycle of blaming that takes place in our system. What is important is that we start taking an initiative and involving others in it. Even the biggest journey begins with the first step , why should this be any different. I think this is really good cause ans we should all be a part of it.
