the first one being the very essence of blog writing, i.e. to draw attention towards your blog and yourself. the other one being , the observation which fascinated the author.
The first one being explicit and quite evident , i will further write about the second motive only.
These days the Anna Hazare movement has been the talk of the town. Not only has it awakened the slumbering politicians , it has also captured another scenario which makes me ponder upon.
the maturing Indians.
Politicians(the opposition and the others);
They surely have realized the impact of public which no more can be ignored. They do understand that the public is quick to respond to anything which requires their attention. The story of Internet & technology touching upon the lives of people is too old to reiterate. Probably now it is when we can see the real benefits of internet and technology. At least we can expect our politicians to upgrade themselves on technology forefront. They now, surely realize how blinded they can be by ignoring the basics of the new generation. At least, we can expect a better educated political class for the days to come which can read our tweets.
Common man;
Though the common man has already been dealt in the previous point, s/he is too important to not have a dedicated slot.
The acting government;
They are trapped for sure. Not only are they up against a clean public figure , with every dawn they are facing the increasing exasperated populace. In fact to be fair with this government, this situation was unmanageable for any political party. But one thing which i have been keenly observing is the way they are holding on to their guns(the active government). This is not to applaud what they are doing. This is just to throw some light on a byproduct of this agitation. A matured political setup. The government might be accused of pushing the dust under the carpet, it has still dared to deal this agitation with a matured outlook. They are still communicating to the public that 'hunger strikes' are not the right way to set things right. And there are people who second that.
An easy way out could have been to agree to the demands. Let the lokpal bill fly and deal with it as and when it comes backfiring. And we all know how tricky a politician can be to dodge a bill/bills. I don't appreciate the UPA goverment for what they are doing but the way they are handling things does augur a matured government set up in the days to come. Or may be these are the good times when the politicians have realized that no more they can run this country with dodge games.
I am still unsure how to end this .All i can think of is;
In God, we trust... errr.... in God can only, we trust.
