Pooh-poohing media reports that there aren’t enough people at Jantar Mantar, activist Anna Hazare said the mobilization of massive crowds for election rallies all these years hadn’t done much for the common man. “It is not the size of the crowd that matters but its intent. And our support will bring the Jan Lokpal Bill in the country,” he said. A combative Arvind Kejriwal observed: “I challenge Sonia and Rahul Gandhi to bring as many people together as we have. Even if they bring people by the truckloads, they can’t match our numbers.”
Kejriwal, in fact, called for “sampoora kranti” (total revolution). “The war should be for a revolution and not just for the Lokpal Bill,” he said, addressing the crowd in the evening. He asked the crowd which party they considered fit to rule by naming politicians the Team accuses of corruption, including Mulayam Singh Yadav (SP), Mayawati (BSP), Jayalalitha (AIADMK), Karunanidhi (DMK), Yeddyurappa (BJP), Nitish Kumar (JD-U) and, of course, the 15 ministers of the UPA government whose names Kejriwal asked the crowd to remember. This was greeted with cheers and demands for a Team Anna party. Kejriwal chose to remain silent. However, he did say, “It’s time we deliberated on this question. During this fast itself, people have to find a solution. We will fast till then.”
Anna, however, told the crowd he himself won’t ever contest or even float a political party. “I don’t have that kind of money. I live a simple ascetic life. But if I am alive after this bill is passed, then I will travel through the country seeking out good, worthy people who want to change the country and have a background in this kind of social work. I will put their name on a list and post it on the net for the country to see. And then, the common man can decide who their political representative should be. Once they have decided, I will personally go and promote them during their election campaign,” he said.
He added that neither the Congress, nor the BJP can help the country and that Parliament needs to be cleansed before the country can progress. “Even industrialists are threatened by our movement and they will try and buy votes for ministers. This is where the voter needs to be honest because taking money for voting is also corruption. And I will continue to fight till I die,” said Anna.
Kejriwal, meanwhile, stated that he didn’t think the President should be left out of discussions at Jantar Mantar. “The seat of President commanded respect when people like Dr Rajendra Prasad and Dr. A.P.J. Abdul Kalam occupied it. Now the man who’s in it has tarnished its glory,” he said. He added, “I respected Parliament that had people like Lal Bahadur Shastri in it, not one with Mulayam Singh Yadav, Laloo Prasad, Kanimozhi and A. Raja.”
He also informed the crowd that the case against him at a Bulandshahr court has been dismissed. While maintaining that concerns about his health were unfounded, he appealed to Anna to refrain from fasting.
