It is good that at last revolution has started against corruption.Common man has failed to survive corruption. Honest man cannot survive in the present system. However as long as every single individual strongly believes and follows that he/or she will not give any bribe or additional charges for chai paani to any governmnet or non government employee or organistion to get the work done fast, corruption will come to an end by itself. Till then no lokpal bill or fasting By Hazare will help. Fasting of Anna Hazare will be successful if all the supporters decide and strongly believe not to give any bribe to any indivdual to get their work done.As citezens of India we need to be united on this issue and be supportive to build a nation free of corruption. | |

As a citizen who believes in the rule of law, as a democrat who believes in the necessity of governance and as an Indian who recognizes what history means, I stand by Hazare and what he fights for. |
