Salute you Anna! Without you Lokpal would be only dream

Whatever you say, Anna Hazare changing his stand now and then, changing team...but we must accept the fact that at age of more than 70 he started Lokpal movement and led successfully.
It is true that Arvind Kejriwal and his team which is now part of AAP played importent role in it but without Anna it could not be successful. Anna's simple language made point of lokpal simple to understand. His fakir type lifestyle attracted youth and other citizens. And top of it, he observed fast for so many days which is not easy. Without Anna, Lokpal would not be possible as it was not being passed since 44 years! Anna created moral pressure.
Whenever history will be written, Anna's name will be there! Who says Gandhi's idelogy is not relevant in present age? Salute you, Anna!

A satire on fake encounter

Once there was a man who was living happily and peacefully with his family and wanted to live happily and peacefully. Police raided his house and found dead bodies in his house. Based on these evidences, man was arrested and sent to jail, but neighbours raised voice against this and represented that man was very violent and he be sent in another village jail.
Man was sent another village jail. But neighbours were still not satisfied with this. They asked to constitute investigation commission. 'SIT' was formed. But SIT could found nothing. So CDI inquiry was set up. CDI put charge sheet against man. Man argued : I have killed only two or three, but you are not taking action against Rajiv who is running 'Gandhi' shop (In Gujarat,  Gandhi's shop is where you found herbals and grocery items.) and who has committed genocide.
CDI men replied, "Wife of Rajiv looks after us very much and gives us Hapta (bribe)s regularly. We get extra income from there. They are our employers. We can't do anything against them. And they killed cockroaches because his mother Indu had allergy with cockroaches. She feared from them, but you....you know whom you killed?
You killed mosquitoes!"
Man said : "But mosquitoes consume bloods from human and they transmit harmful diseases like malaria, dengue etc.To keep environment mosquito free, you don't spray D.D.T. You do not keep this area clean and when I kill just two or three mosquitoes, you make hue and cry."
CDI men said : "It is like that. It is O.K. to kill cockroaches, but unfair to kill mosquitoes."
