Which side of history you want to be ?

Untitled document




On the eve of Team Annas struggle for corruption free India ,                                                      


                                            Which Side of History you want to be ?

                    Change Makers                                                                 Skeptics
370 BC , Chanakya: I will fight the greek invasion and create a strong empire spanning across India.
Skeptics: You are just a brahmin teacher living on mercy of king.How can you fight the geek invasion
In 17th Century , Shivaji maharaj: I want to end evil moghul rule , bring in a rule of justice, stop atrocities
Skeptics : Its stupid , no one can fight and win against the mighty moghuls, Shivaji is selfish and wants kingdom for his owns sake ,Shivaji along with his followers will be soon caught and killed
In 1848 , Jyotiba & Savitri phule: I want to educate women , abolish untouchability , save female infanticide, enable widow remarriage
Skeptics: It will destabilize society, its against religion, will bring gods anger, its foolish and against social order , it will never work , it will never happen
1929, Bhagat Singh: To overthrow british rule , I will awaken masses by taking revenge of Lala lajpat rai’s death , explode a bomb in assembly , go on hunger strike(41day) to demand equal rights for prisoners in jail
Skeptics: Such acts have no impact on society and can never end british rule .
Tilak: Swaraj is my birthright and I will have it
Skeptics: Sun never sets on british empire
Subhash Chandra Bose: I will form a army and will fight the british and defeat them
Skeptics: You can never do that.You are a common man , where will you find the resources to form an army and maitian it.Your army can never win against british.Its a futile, unrealistic effort
Ambedkar: Dalits deserve equal rights and I will fight to get it for them.
Skeptics: You are a poor dalit, you cant. Giving equality to dalits will destabilise social order and will harm larger interests of society in long run
Anna Hazare: Will change my drought porne, liquor den village into a ideal , properous village
Skeptics: No one can change this village , the liqour makers will kill you , people will not support you , droughts will never go
Anna Hazare: People have Right to Information(RTI) on govt documents.I will get it for them
Skeptics: If people get access to govt files it will do more harm to govt functioning and good. Govt will never allow people access to its files
Anna Hazare: Jan lokpal will end majority of corruption, I will get it .
Skeptics: Jan lokpal wont do much , corruption will happen , Govt will never give it.
My Choice is clear , 

I dont want to be with the armchair skeptics ..

I want to be on the side of history makers....I want to be with Team Anna..
What about you ?
