There is nothing more elusive than the obvious. I am neither against Anna Hazare nor his movement. I am just seriously concerned that his strategies are going to boomerang against him. If he fails in this attempt, politicians will gain confindence and right minded people would be discouraged in future. When pitching against monsters strategies have to be made accordingly. Pitching naive will be a great loss.
One quick flash at the sequence of events unfolded in the last few days. Baba Ramdev fats, midnight arrest, Anna hazare supports Ramdev and fasts at Rajghat. In the fast, Anna Hazare calls it a SECOND FREEDOM struggle. Congress rebuked saying freedom movement was against the British and cant be compared with this as this government is democratically elected by people. I do agree with Congress. He again sets deadlines for the Lokpal bill. If not met, he says he would go on an indefinite fast. How can a person threaten a legitimately elected government so? In fact he can be prosecuted for this.
Arvind Kejriwal says, Judiciary also has to come under the scanner of Lokpal. Basically these people's emotional utterances gives am impression of their immaturity. Judiciary, executive andlegislature are the three pillars of constitution and checks and balances are there to check each other. That is the reason why today Supreme court has taken over 2G case.
What if tomorrow Geelani undertakes a fast and demands separate Kashmir and sets deadlines to the government. Atleast for hazare, the support was thin (People may differ) but for Geelani, I am sure people will spring up from all quarters. Even our Congress government and the so-called educated/honest PM does not take action against Geelani or Arundati Roy for seditious talks against the government but for Ramdev he terms the incident as unfortunate. Actually in my opinion its unfortunate to have such a PM.
Sum and substance of the entire episode is Congress sensed the weakness of Anna Hazare. They encouraged Baba Ramdev so that they can divide and rule. Ramdev tried to plat double game which was again useful to the Congress. Hazare getting emotional, spoke what should not be spoken against this government.
Result: He gave more weapons to government/Congress armoury. Even the mighty Ram and Pandavas spent 13/14 years working on their strategy in war. Gandhi also took Ahimsa as a strategy, hen playing against a fair enemy. Chanakya took 14 years to strategise and win the empire from Nandas. But this man wants everything at the stroke of the pen. In the process, only more of his naiveness is exposed. Know your enemy, Mr. Hazare!
