The Movement Continues

Dear Nagpurians,

IT certainly gives a reason to feel proud to know, to feel ,to share, to see the UNTIY Nagpurians have shown almost last 15 days. And the most amazing and best part about it all was it WAS ABSOLUTELY NON-VIOLENT and harmless for any human or anything.

 Well, fellow Indians, this is just the beginning of the much needed era of a REVOLUTION which India needed since decades and to keep the flames burning we all need to be together, connected for the next steps.

Once the efforts bear the fruits when the Jan Lokpal gets passed, we all have to play a major role in implementing it an for that you don’t need to do much, just start getting connected as wide and as deep as possible.

For this we will regularly organize various activities like debate competitions in colleges, awareness campaign, etc.

As anything here is incomplete without contribution, please keep posting your ideas, comments, information, views, suggestions relevant to this MOVEMENT.

Remember, its NOW OR NEVER.

India Against Corruption- meeting updates

Dear Friends

We request to attain a meeting  on 7 Aug at 4.30 PM at SANGHI SADAN, Congress Nagar, Near A.I.R. Press, NAGPUR for  discussing and finalizing   program  for supporting Anna Movement of Jan Lok Pal Bill

Contact person :-  Dr. Gopal Bele 9423683057 //Anup Dave-9373899883 //Ram Kumar Dubey 9922440986

=============================================================================================

We are also forwarding message of Respected Anna Hazare for your better understanding  of the  National situation

Anna Hazares message to the Nation for 15th and 16th August.

My Dear Fellow Indians,
A decisive battle against corruption has begun. We are not against any political party. We want systemic reforms. We want a corruption-free India. After all, what are the people asking for – a strong anti-corruption law which provides for honest and time-bound investigations and trials that result in jail for the guilty, confiscation of embezzled money and their dismissal from service? Are we asking too much? For two months, we were talking to the government. Government seems unwilling to take even small steps against corruption. Government appears insincere. We have met all prominent political leaders. We have tried everything. What do we do now? When I announced my indefinite fast from 16th August, the government threatened that they would crush us the way they crushed Baba Ramdev's peaceful agitation. Friends, this is a historic opportunity. We can't afford to lose it. We are determined to fight to the end. If they arrest us, we will peacefully offer ourselves. If they use batons and bullets, we will happily lay down our lives but will not leave the place. We will not retaliate. It will be a completely non-violent movement. “If you fast on 16th August, you will be crushed” – this is what they are saying. “We will impose section 144 on Jantar Mantar” – this is what they are thinking. But I say that if every citizen in this country takes off from his work from 16th August, comes on the streets in front of his house, at the crossing, with a tricolor in his hands shouting “Bharat Mata ki Jai” and raising slogans against corruption, they will fall short of batons and bullets. The government may arrest one Anna Hazare but how will they arrest 120 crore Anna Hazares? They may impose section 144 at one Jantar Mantar but will they impose section 144 on the whole country? And let me tell you – the police and army is with us. At traffic signals, policemen stop us, express their support and wish us well; at Raj Ghat, the policemen donated generously for the movement! So, will you take off from your work from 16 August? Will you descend on the streets with me? This year, the country will wait for 16th rather than 15th August. In solidarity,
thanks

Anna Hazare

“WHY GOVERNMENT'S LOKPAL IS DANGEROUS???”

Government's Lokpal is targeted against those who raise their voice against corruption rather than to punish the corrupt!  Government's Lokpal Provides Greater Protection to Corrupt!  Will then any citizen dare raise a voice against corruption

लोकपाल के नाम पर जनता को धोखा

तय हो गया है कि सरकार जो लोकपाल बिल लाने जा रही है उसमें - 

• रिश्वतखोरी से दुखी आम आदमी की शिकायतें लोकपाल नहीं सुनेगा. 
• निचले स्तर के अधिकारियों व कर्मचारियों के भ्रष्टाचार  की जन लोकपाल के दायरे में नहीं आएगी 
• नगर निगम, पंचायत, विकास प्राधिकरणों का भ्रष्टाचार इसकी जांच के दायरे में नहीं आएगा 
• राज्य सरकारों का भ्रष्टाचार इसके दायरे में नहीं आएगा
• प्रधानमंत्री, जजों और सांसदों का भ्रष्टाचार इसके दायरे में नहीं आएगा, यानि  २-जी, कैश फॉर वोट, कामनवेल्थ, आदर्श, येदुरप्पा, जैसे घोटाले इससे एकदम बाहर रखे गए हैं. 
• ७ साल से पुराना कोई भी मामला इसकी जांच के दायरे में नहीं आएगा... अर्थात बोफोर्स, चारा घोटाला जैसा कोई भी घोटाला इसकी जांच के दायरे से पहले ही अलग कर  दिया गया है. 
• लोकपाल के सदस्यों का चयन प्रधानमंत्री, एक मंत्री, लोकसभा अध्यक्ष, प्रधानमंत्री द्वारा मनोनीत एक बुद्धिजीवी, एक ज्यूरिस्ट, के हाथ में होगा क्योंकि इसके चयन के लिए जो समिति बनेगी उसमें एक बाकी के एक दो लोगो और होंगे, और उनकी कौन सुनेगा?
• लोकपाल के सदस्यों को ही सारा काम करना होगा यानि सारा का सारा काम ८ सदस्य करेंगे, अफसरों के पास निर्णय लेने के अधिकार नहीं होंगे, इससे सारा का सारा काम दो-तीन महीने में ही ठप हो जाएगा.

ज़ाहिर है कि नेता एक अच्छा लोकपाल बिल नहीं ला सकते. क्योंकि अगर एक सख्त लोकपाल कानून बना तो देश के आधे से अधिक नेता दो साल में जेल चले जायेंगे और बाकी की भी दुकानदारियाँ बंद हो जाएंगी. इसलिए यह ज़रूरी हो गया है कि हम यानी देश के आम लोग इस कानून को बनवाने की पहल करें. 

अभी नहीं तो कभी नहीं

१६ अगस्त से एक सप्ताह की छुट्टी लीजिए  और कमर कसकर तेयार हो जाइए एक निर्णायक आन्दोलन के लिए. १६ अगस्त की सुबह तिरंगा लहराते हुए अपने अपने घर से निकालिए.

Volunteer- India Against Corruption Nagpur

we won't stop until we win!

Dear Nagpurians,

The Cabinet approved a weak and ineffective "Joke-pal" bill -- ignoring people's mandate for strong anti-corruption legislation. But public outrage is rapidly turning to bold, nationwide action -- let's join in and supercharge this historical moment.

The Cabinet has approved a weak and ineffective “Joke-Pal” draft for Parliament -- betraying the overwhelming public mandate for a strong anti-corruption law. But public outrage is rapidly turning to bold, nationwide action -- we can join in and supercharge this historical moment.

The future of the fight against corruption is now in the hands of the standing committee, and they have the power to strengthen the Cabinet's weak Lokpal . We know they will only act to regulate themselves and their friends if public pressure gives them no other option. Anti-corruption protests planned across India in the next weeks will powerfully send the message: we won't stop until we win!

Already, the government has moved to quash Anna Hazare's upcoming protest in Jantar Mantar -- showing their fear of public outcry. Let’s double the energy we brought to support Anna last April. By standing together in our own towns, parks and communities, we will show our leaders the power of India's anti-corruption movement. Contact us to know activities in Nagpur:

The Parliament has just begun the much anticipated monsoon session. After months of promises and bureaucratic delays, Congress wants to pass a Lokpal bill that does little to fight corruption in their ranks. Under the proposed Joke-pal, the PM, the entire Judiciary and 75% of all civil servants would be immune from investigation -- leaving them to steal our money and force bribes with impunity.

But the government has heard about the hundreds of protests planned across India to support the Jan Lokpal and a real anti-corruption bill. Anna Hazare is already making waves: he has said he is ready to face lathis, jail, bullets, starvation -- he is willing to sacrifice his life for India's desperately needed strong anti-corruption legislation. Now is the time for us to stand with Anna and thousands of brave activists in the streets and tell the government that we will fight against corruption until we win!

Throughout this month, citizens across the country are forming small teams and undertaking padyatras. On August 9th, we will gather to tear up and burn the government's Jokepal in protest of the weak and ineffective proposal. And on August 16th, we will start relay hunger fasts across the country to support Anna Hazare and many other brave citizens on hunger strike.

Three months ago, our movement catapulted corruption to the top of the national agenda and won promises from Singh and his cabinet for historic action. Since then, we've delivered over a million messages to key decision makers: flooding their offices with emails, faxes and phone calls; presenting hard-hitting stunts and billboards; and gaining massive coverage in the media. Let’s now pull out all the stops and show the whole country and the world we are determined to take on corruption and win.

With hope and determination,

Team India Against Corruption
