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 ?
