Do you have the right to commit Social Suicide?

Fast until death is what I am talking about. We have witnessed this idiom in many instances in recent past, for eg. Mr. Anna Hazare and Baba Ramdev have been on the top of trends. Both of them were on same agenda without any personal gain or personal political aspirations.

In a fast growing and fast developing economy, the common man generally supports any such plan that help them get rid of corruption and have graft free society. Such movement wakes up the country's consciousness.

In order to die one has to live first. What I mean to say here is that if one has done something good for the society in big or small way. Obama the Nobel Peace Prize winner has now sent arms to Libya, now being termed as more brutal than Bush. Anna has lots of awards and honour in his bag starting from his native village Ralegan Siddhi. But in case of Baba we have not witnessed such instances other than yoga and herbal medicines. Anna's movement brought convulsion in the country while Baba's movement made more harm than good to the cause. Due to his dramatic escape and follies, the credibility of other civil society members has been deeply deteriorated. The same govt which were submissive with Anna has become belligerent suddenly and is on assault mode now.

The irony is that India has to go a long way as corruption is engrained in its blood. No one is willing to say first that “I am not paying for my right” to get their job done and rather asking them (the corrupt) to stop taking this pay.
