Why Only Hunger Strike??

Again Anna Hajare has started the hunger strike, this time for the law against corruption The Comprehensive Lokpal Bill -  which will be according to the wish of the common people.

The opinions expressed here, you may feel strange or as now Anna is getting support so people are coming to support him, even I wonder Amir Khan who was spending his days watching CWC matches, has suddenly got the concern about corruption. One political party who ridiculed Anna in past is showing the support too.

The purpose of this site is not discuss every news happening, but to find long term solutions of problems, conflicts and issues which faced by India. So please read this article in that context.

So, to solve all the problems like corruption, terrorism we need agitation, need revolution. No doubt, someone should start it. We need a leader, who will bring the country to a stable stage of growth, development with security and without corruption.

The shameless behavior of politicians should be stopped, and the guilty should be punished. They should be challenged and pressurized for justice.

And yes! All this is very much needed and possible in India, the largest Democracy in the world.

But,

Why only Hunger strike?

Only Hunger Strike?

Who can resist to be thought like Gandhiji!!

Anyway no personal criticism, we will focus on Hunger Strike Political Strategy only. Yes! Of course it is also a political move.

By making yourself weak and putting the emotional pressure on the Government and the people too, what we are actually gaining?

Is This The Democratic Way? See, when some people provoke sentiments of common people in the name religion, we strongly hate it. And that is not according to law. 

But this is also not the democratic way and in this also we are provoking sentiments by damaging health.

Can't we find some democratic and sophisticated way for any movement?

Hunger strike leads to satisfy and cherish one's ego only. Some of you may say, but Anna is a selfless man and he is doing all this for common man. In case of Gandhiji's hunger strikes people used to think the same, especially after Partition of India, he started hunger strike for peace and Hindu - Muslim unity, and the results were opposite. After failure of his strategies we easily blame the religions for riots, but that was the wrong policies which was to cherish his ego in the name truth.

I repeat again, my intention is to think long term consequences so this time he is doing right or wrong is not to be discussed here. My objection is to hunger strike. And Anna Hajare on  hunger strike as a leader !

Putting emotional pressure on govt, can become dangerous. Another example of pressurizing the Govt. by emotions is, the biggest blunder of NDA govt, to release most dangerous terrorists in Kandahar Plane Hijack, that was nothing but due to the emotional pressure by the media.

I wonder, even Kiran Bedi supported such childish and ever failed way of movement.

How these ways give encouragements to behind the scene deals, no need to discuss. I am not blaming Anna Hajare. Discussion is on the way of movement.

Is this the only way for Satyagrah - The fight for the truth?  The mixing of spiritual principles which are supposed to be observed personally for personal spiritual growth, with the practical, material and political life by Gandhiji has made this country childish in every decision.

These weak ways have destroyed our generations psychologically. The youth are become weak before the growth and before knowing what is the youth all about. In this same series one more weak way, the lightening of candles, on border, in Mumbai on 26/11, now on this corruption too. I don't understand should I cry or laugh on these hunger, candle, games of little kids.

When someone is becoming leader, moving the country by all means , like Facebook, Twitter, my question to them is when they are attracting the attention and support of people, are they really capable to handle all the consequences because the leader is becoming weak by hunger strike? We have an example of Chouri Choura, and how people became violent that time.

I believe any agitation should be with proper plans for the future. The leader should be capable of thinking the consequences after 10 - 15 or 20 years on the country and the coming generations. This looks a very big expectation because we have stopped to think big. The decisions should be responsible with the analysis of the long term goals and their achievements. The matured ways of implementing policies. And more important the leader should be able to take all responsibility of the movement and the control over the movement. And his decisions should relieve tensions of common man. But what we see in this Hunger strike method, daily news of the declining health of the leader and increasing tensions of people. 

The person who himself has surrendered to the death by hunger strike means who is ready to die, how they can be leader?

But we have a great faith on emotional pressurizing strategy of Hunger strike because somewhere inside we know nobody dies with hunger strikes. The situations and decisions get settled. We think this is the victory of truth and the other party also get satisfied with this settlement. Again no personal criticism, but this is what is the Hunger Strike!

And one more important dimension of Hunger Strike, the nation is facing so many problems, how many hunger strikes we will do for each problem? We will need always some one who will do this. 

Don't we have some other ways where our intelligent human brain will be utilized for the country instead of making it weak by keeping oneself hungry?

Finally, 

I am supporting the Anti - Corruption movement, but I strongly oppose the HUNGER STRIKE.  My request to Anna Hajareji and his followers is to please try some new means of drawing attention of people and Government too! 

Whatever may be the outcome of this movement, please never encourage, hunger till death methodology!
