In recent years there was only one movement which has wide range of acceptance all over India...and all true citizens of India united and outraged against "Bhrastachar"- the Corruption and this was even named as second Freedom Struggle. People from every nook and corner of the nation has taken active part in the movement and vindicated their views. Anna Hazare lead the people to protest against Govt views on lokpal bill and even political parties raised their voices supporting Anna. Team Anna comprised of many intellectual people like Prashant Bhushan, Arvind Kejriwal, Kiran Bedi... etc and this united intellectuals inspired many people around the nation and made the movement successful but recently Team Anna was the care of address for controversies...some of the crucial members left and some of them are facing allegations of corruption. Now let us see some of them...
Hissar Issue: The main motto of the Team Anna is to fight against corruption and they always opposed politics and politicians. Team Anna decided to campaign against the congress in Hissar Lok sabha constituency in Haryana. Active campaigning was done by Kejriwal & Prashant Bhushan but they lost their original motto and their campaign seemed rather as a political and which was completely out of character of team. Some of the team members did not like the way it was done and questioned the campaigners but they did not get the satisfactory answers either from them or from Anna Hazare...so finally Mr.P.V.Rajagopal & Mr.Rajendra Singh chose to leave the Team Anna.
Kashmir Issue: The most prominent Kashmir issue even rattled Team Anna. Prashant Bhushan made controversial statements on plebiscite in Kashmir and hence Hindutva extremists launched a physical assault and eventually he was thrown out of team.
Corruption Allegations: The basic cause for the evolution of the revolution is to eradicate corruption from the nation but miserably some of the team members are facing corruption allegations and this is a huge blow for the team since the most prominent members of the team Kejriwal and Kiran Bedi were facing these allegations. One of the members of the team Mr.Agnivesh charged Kejriwal for transferring funds amounted to 80 lkah from IAC(India Against Corruption) to the account of his personal foundation. Recently a slipper was thrown when he was addressing a meeting in Lucknow. Any way they remained as allegations since there were no proofs were submitted by agnivesh.
Similarly Kiran Bedi was facing allegations that she has misused ticket fares and charged fill fare reimbursements from the people who invited her. Actually gallantry award winners get 75% concession on all economy class tickets on board India. Mrs Kiran Bedi transferred these full fare charge amounts to Indian Vision Foundation (IVF) an NGO headed by her. Any way Kiran protested that those amounts were saved for a cause.
Any way this is the time for Team Anna to re-group and launch a program that proves them they are strong to face the filthy politicians of UPA. UPA should remember that this movement is by the people of the people and for the people. Coming to Team Anna this is the time to react because Lokpal Bill is going to take a concrete shape in the winter session of the Parliament.
