RE: [HumJanenge] Break the law and become hero

Dear Friends,
 
Its unfotunate that most of us  have  accepted the fact that we must
wait for 5 years irrespective of the inefficient /corrupt administration. 
Whats the gurantee that party /person who comes next will do better? Country has seen  a few changes of the govts at the  centre & plenty in the states since independence.
 
People in power & bureaucrats can join hands with corporates to fleece the common man . Are the laws for Aam Aadmi only? A poor man who earns Rs 10,000 PM  & is  handed over a bill of 7000, how will he & his family survive.No one is supporting  breaking of the laws of the land .
It was  a symbolic gesture to make the Administratin realize the difficulty of common man in the street .
 
When ever Anna & party raised any query, politicians had  one answer.  ' We have been elected by the voters to be their rep . You also fight elections , get elected first & then pass Jan Lokpal "
Arvind Kejriwal & his Team  IAC  (India Against Corruption) were left with no choice but to get into politics . 
 
Hope & pray that Public gives IAC their whole hearted support & it does not remain limited to a small intelligentia who are on the internet.
 
 
 
 
Regards
Prem

I disagree. Even, Gandhi had to break the law and led Namak and other satyagrahs and only after that, India achieved freedom.  For such initiative, one need 'Kaleja'.

Sir,

It is sad  to see the headline news in several newspapers and TV media  terming Kejriwal restoring snapped power in Delhi as an act of satyagraha.. It is an insult to Gandhiji's concept of satyagraha.

This appears to be a political showmanship by Kejriwal and the media is obliging him for whatever reasons.  If the objective were to force the Delhi government to roll back power and water tariffs, it should be made an election issue and  the Delhi government should be unseated democratically.

Encouragement to law breaking activity will lead to chaos and anarchy.  The media  should be more circumspect  and refrain from encouraging such law breaking activities.

If it is viewed  that such law breaking activity is satyagraha and media want to project such acts, then media will not have enough space ,  since hundreds of such acts are happening in this country every day.  One should not be allowed to become a national hero simply by breaking law.

Further, if the social activists would like to defeat corruption and ensure fair governance, they should keep in mind Mahatama Gandhi's philosophy that means should justify the ends. Creating law and order situation in the name of fighting for public cause will be proved to be counter productive and against the national interest.
