SKU: PP 083

This Book is an exhaustive study of the face of corruption in Indian polity and the role of a lone crusader like Anna Hazare in cleaning it up. It traces the history of various abortive attempts to frame a strong Anti-Corruption bill that could deter people occupying public offices from polluting the domain of democratic governance in India. Against this backdrop, it highlights the exasperation of the Civil society with the clumsy attempts of Public personalities to frame, and at times to block the birth of such a law. It etches out the contours of Anna Hazare's attempts to forge this angst of the Civil society into a Powerful popular movement to force law makers to understand the urgency of introducing such a bill in the Parliament. The book also takes a panoramic view of corruption in high levels in India at how it has been eating into the vitals of Indian economy and citizens; welfare. It highlights the inadequacy of the existing legal provisions to prosecute public personalities for their crimes of corruption against the state and the nation. In the murky waters of corruption. The book touches a human chord when it dips into the past of Anna Hazare to build the persona of this great son of India, not practices what he preaches. No wonder, he calls himself a "fakir" a man who has no family, no propert and no bank balance. This 74-Year-old crusader started an indefinite hunger strike on August 16, 2011 at Ramlila maidan, Delhi to get his team's Jan Lokpal passed in the ongoing session of Parliament. He ended his fast after 12 days on August 28, 2011 after the Indian Parliament had passed an all party resolution which supports the key areas pointed in the Jan Lokpal. Evan his detractor and politicians, who hate his guts, grudgingly accept he is the only person who has the power to mobilize common people across the country and shake up a government.
