In such dismal scenario, Anna Hazare singularly continued his anti corruption agitation and later on several people jumped into his bandwagon.. Anna Hazare alone suffered by going on long fast for the cause repeatedly.
He successfully stirred the conscience of the country men and created hope amongst them that successful fight against corruption would be possible.
It is a great tribute to Anna Hazare that his crusade and the public opinion that he built have forced the politicians to pass the Lokpal bill after several years.
Government of India should honour Anna Hazare by conferring Bharat Ratna. There are several other people in recent times, who have been the recipients of Bharat Ratna for excelling in their area of activity but they did not suffer or sacrifice anything for the cause. On the other hand, Anna Hazare has little education , belongs to a lower middle income group and has no particular backing of any sort until recently , and he has carried out his life long crusade against corruption with his personal sacrifice.
