           What is CORRUPTION is actually?The process by which something, typically a word or expression, is changes from its original use or meaning to one that is regarded as erroneous or debased is 'CORRUPTION'. In INDIA corruption is inevitable.Because the Governments have too much power in their hands.And also it is one of the biggest problems country is facing today.but where everyone go wrong in thinking about it is that we treat it like a "Disease", when  in reality its a symptom.Corruption arises from power,when people have power over our lives, they will misuse it (in 99% issues).When every Government servant you encounter while doing some routine work or his job, from  a peon to an officer, can delay or derail you, corruption is inevitable.

The solution to end corruption is, since the problem lies with power, tackle it first.We need to question the many ways the Governments control our lives.Terminating the every ministry that has no reason to exist, at both 'CENTRAL and STATE LEVEL'. Governments  should exist to implement law and order, to protect our rights, and to provide basic services -'NOTHING ELSE'.The "Lokpal bill" does not handle any of these, instead ' A situation where the problem is power, it creates another one which has even more power and  not been elected, but appointed by the Governments.


                 On Aug 16th, the "FAST UNTO DEATH" by HAZARE was arrested and was jailed saying that it is a legal offence.Within the hours of this 'second freedom struggle', Hazare was released,and he refused to leave the prison.In protesting against the Governments decision on Lokpaal', and demanded the implementation of the Bill, and right to protest in public.Meanwhile 300 employees of the Municipal Corporation of DELHI', 15trucks,6 earth movers worked 24/7 to prepare the 'RAMLILA grounds'. Watched over by the chanting crowds and crane mounted TV cameras, attended by the INDIA's most expensive doctors, the third phase of Corporate sponserd HAZARE's (in most of the cases these Corporates and Multinational's corrupt the Governments to get permissions.) has begun. " From Kashmir to Kanyakumari, INDIA's youth is with HAZARE ", the TV anchors tell us.

The people only means the audience that has gathered to watch the 74yr-old man threatening to starve himself to death if his Jan Lokpal Bill is not passed by the parliament.The people are tens of thousands who have been multiplied into millions and exaggerated by our Media saying " a billion voices have spoken ", and we' re told. "INDIA IS ONE & INDIA IS ANNA ".Meanwhile the Booker prize winner,Novelist,activist Arundathi Roy says about Anna Hazare, Who is he really ? this new saint, this voice of people ? Oddly enough we've heard him saying nothing about things of urgent concern.About 'Green Hunt',nothing about the farmers suicides in his home state,nothing about Singur&Nandigram and the Governments plans to deploy the Army in central India.He does however supported and praised the 'development model  of Gujarat's Chief Minister who oversaw the 2002 Massacres of Muslims, and  his connections with RSS?....And after knowing all these things i am asking myself   " Should I Support him ?....
