Who exactly is responsible for the sudden unending movement against corruption in the country? Was it Anna Hazare, Baba Ramdev or a combination of both?
Why has a society that was tolerant towards corruption suddenly against it? Was it the huge figure of amount involved in the corruption charges in the 2G case?
How exactly has it happened that Cabinet Ministers and very influential persons suddenly locked up behind bars in Tihar jail? Was it the judiciary that has become suddenly active to refuse bail even in cases where there are negligible chances of the accused leaving the country?
What has made talk shows on news channels of television focus on corruption in high places and are getting more TRPs than movie channels at prime time? Is it the peoples’ hunger for news - sensational news, or because of boring films shown on movie channels?
Whose voice is it that we hear in the above mentioned questions that is gaining higher decibels and momentum in the society today? Where were these voices in the past and why were these voices not heard?
What has suddenly instigated this clamour? What has made them impatient?
Why are their voices heard above the rest? Is it the new class of people that have suddenly arisen forth?
A class of people that are not tolerant to bribe their way through? A class of people that does not believe in the principle of forgive and forget?
A class of people who have found new meaning for freedom of speech in today’s news channels.
India has suddenly woken up. And Indians have begun taking it in their hands to change their society for the better. Everybody knows it and welcomes the new generation of do-gooders who are getting results.
The likes of Anna Hazare may be from the older generation, but they have found acceptance from the newer generation.
They are willing to be led towards a country free from corruption and towards a more efficient and wonderful society. Lead forth. Everybody knows it.
But do our politicians know it? Are we heading for a day when all the present set of politicians will be wiped out with new non-dynastic faces in the next decade?
Everybody wants it!
