Anna Hazare:the new age Ghandhi

In recent past we have seen in Egypt what mass agitation can do.Now in our own backyard we are seeing
same type of mass agitation led by Gandhian Anna Hazare demanding Lokpal bill enactment.It was the political class that believed in the idea of Indian state.They fought against British Raj and made India Independent.No
one in the world believed that Indian state can function as a Democracy with majority of its electorate being illiterate.Still the political class believed the people of the country and engaged themselves in the democratic process.But after a decade or two the majority of population became sceptic about the intentions of the politicians in general.May be in a country with so much illiteracy where votes can be got in the name of cast,creed and religion the politicians had no honest intention for the development of the country.so the politicians took their countrymen for a ride.With time the "aspirant class" in India has grown rapidly.This "aspirant class" is the face of New India.They are young liberal middle class educated population in post economic reform
India.They can not be fooled by politicians so easily.They are most vocal about a political class which is full of ageing power hungry corrupt people.In the "justice for Jessica" agitation also  we have seen these young people in the frontline.Today in Jantar Mantar the "Tehrir Square" of India you will see these young turks forming majority of the crowd.What is interesting that  after India's world cup win people of the country had a
self belief that now they can achieve what they want.So they came in suuport of Anna Hazare in the same number as they came in celebration of India's victory.In last few months people have seen major scams like
commonwelth scam,2G scam,Adarsh housing.So now people feel "enough is enough".This demand for enactment of Lokpal bill is one occasion when people shows their anger against politicians.And their new found icon is Anna Hazare a gandhian social worker.
