It is 11th day of Anna Hazare’s fast demanding implementation of Jan Lok Pal bill drafted by his team. The present day politicians who repeatedly take up fast but fall sick just in two or three days should feel ashamed of their health. Anna Hazare’s robust health is due to his regular physical activity and healthy food habits and activity. Even the youth of today have a lesson to learn from his life on healthy living.
Anna has to think of withdrawing his fast. In democracy though the parliament is supreme to rule the nation, the members in it are there because of people. It is the people who have given them that power. People have to respect parliament and parliament has the responsibility to give due consideration to people.
Parliament should take Team Anna into confidence and discuss the Lok Pal and Jan Lok Pal drafts and finally draft a bill to curb corruption. This should have an organisation which should be autonomous with branches at district and state levels. The organisation should have investigative and punitive authority. All the related government departments should help the organisation with investigation of corruption charges and also in imposing punishment. All the activity should be carried out in a transparent way. Even the members of the organisation should be made accountable by appropriate clauses in the bill.
People hope to get a Lok Pal bill which makes everyone in the society accountable and end corruption at all levels in due course.
