India turning vigilant

The recent protests against corruption, demanding the involvement of civilians in the Janlokpal Bill Drafting Committee, reminded of  an old yet an effective methodology in the 21st century, to show desertion against the unscrupulous Government policies. Thanks to Anna Hazare for showing us the way, the same person who took pains to get the Right To Information (RTI) act passed. His Gandhian method of "fasting till death" still highlights the persuasive power of non-violent demonstrations. The involvement of educated youth was quite pivotal too.
   But this is just the beginning, the way to corruption free India is still a mammoth task. Not merely in the higher echelons of the society, the duty to uproot corruption requires efforts at the individual level too.This requires that our actions in  day to day life too must be non corrupt.
         It now remains the moral responsibility of every Indian to demolish this social evil, otherwise the sacrifices of  Anna Hazare's and all those in the years to come, would  be in vain.
