Last year when the JPC issue was going on , after reading editorials in few eminent newspapers of India, few questions raised in mind about insanity levels of "Elites" who wrote them. Now the history repeats again.
Few articles are inferring that, there is a parallel Govt in India. You are mistaken if you think those columnists are referring to Naxals or Mafia. They are referring people at jantar mantar fighting for lok pal bill. According to these Elites, the Anna Hazare gang is being unreasonable regarding lokpal bill and acting like a parallel Govt. First of all the author did not comprehend the functions of Govt. If he is aware of it, he would not compare a pressure group with Govt. And I am not sure if he knows about the history of lokpal bill. And clearly he must be thinking that democracy means conducting elections and nothing else.
"The anna hazare gang" can be called pressure group who are putting pressure on the Govt to pass a bill. These people are not taxing us and are not running courts. Calling them a parallel govt shows the immaturity of the author in the field of politics.
Lokpal bill is not the idea of Ramdev baba or anna hazare .... since 1977 its trying to get passed in the loksabha but struck in the various committees. Anna hazare is just trying to get it passed because last year largest scams in the history of India were unearthed. I think its time to prepare weapons against corruption.
If you study the development of political theory....except in case of marxism we understand that each development is answering one question "What if the men who are running the nation are bad at that job?" Gone were the days where people believed that kings are sent from the heaven and people of that bloodline could not go wrong. We moved from monarchy to republic. Even in republic, what if those bunch of people are corrupt. So we made a system of polity where people are given the opportunity to change the present govt if they are not satisfied with it. This would keep ruling party on toes , because opposition will try to prove that this govt bad for people and use it in the coming elections. But sometimes we cant wait for next elections to repair damage. An urgent actions is required. Then people will raise their voice again. This is what happened with JP ...and Anna hazare is trying to do the same. Calling this action anti-govt is stupidity.
I was irritated when these elites abused opposition party for hijacking parliament session last December. Their point is 127cr were being wasted because of adamant nature of opposition. So should we not question govt when there is 1.7 lakh cr scam because it would waste 127 cr ? Very old but appropriate proverb is "Penny wise and pound foolish".
Why reputed newspapers allow these naive people to publish their madness? Because they are celebrities ? That newbie of politics who wrote those articles was CEO of a delhi based marketing consultancy. He worries that protests like these would defame indian image and might reduce FDI inflow.... hehe. Ok i agree , that his personal opinion, but what about the insanity levels of the editor of that newspaper?

"penny wise and pund foolish"
very true. Need not to say, these so-called intellectuals are biased towards some political party. Their aim is defaming someone who became a threat to that party.
@srikanth ... righto :)
