Support Anna Hazare-Powai Movement Part 2


19th August was a little better than 16th Aug. Probably due to two reasons - weekend eve and Anna Hazare going strong even on the 4th day of his fast. It looks like Anna checkmates government on every move that the government takes and then gives the government one more life. Anna surely has some superb political advisers.

Getting back to the movement at Powai, we reached a little late at Galleria and the group had already gone ahead with the rally. There were 7 of us with a lot more candles. Still, we lit as many candles and shouted some slogans. Many passer by gave a look at us, acknowledging our effort by slowing down in their walking speed. However there was that shyness among people to join us, so I would like to let people know that this FIGHT AGAINST CORRUPTION is not Private or limited to any class or caste of people. It is For all Indians, By all Indians.

It took some effort from our side to invite people in our protest (slogans), and when we parted there were 40 people at the end.

Support Anna Hazare - Powai Movement.


We moved around Hiranandani holding banners today at 9AM. Starting from Lake Castle Stone fountain, we walked towards Dmart. We stood there for half an hour, shouting slogans in support of Anna Hazare-ji and against Corruption. We also burned the government's copy of Toothless Lokpal Bill (Jokepal).

Though the response was meek to begin with, a few people joined in as we moved around, including Job-goers, daily wage workers and auto drivers. We had started spreading the message only a night day before, so there was not enough strength in number of people. We are planning a more organised morcha in a couple of days.
