"July 25 ko Jantar Mantar" IAC
"July
25 ko Jantar Mantar"- the slogan filled the air as scores of people
once again came out on the street to demand Jan Lokpal Bill. As a run up
to the anshan starting from July 25, India Against Corruption (IAC)
organised a massive car/bike/auto rally in Delhi NCR today in which
nearly 1500 vehicles participated.
Many smaller rallies were organised throughout the day - notable among them were rallies originating from Peera Garhi, Uttam Nagar, Mehrauli, Azadpur and Dilshad Garden. These rallies culminated into a larger rally which started from Rajghat at 4pm. This rally was led by the three anshankaris Arvind Kejriwal, Manish Sisodia and Gopal Rai. Senior IAC leader Shanti Bhushan along with Prashant Bhushan, Kumar Vishwas, Sanjay Singh, Arvind Gaur and Sunita Godara were also present.
The patriotic fervor that reached crescendo during Annaji's August anshan once again came alive with all the vehicles waving the tri color. The rally passed through Ramlila maidan - the August anshan site - and reached Jantar Mantar, where the July 25 indefinite anshan would take place.
Arvind Kejriwal reiterated the charges on the 15 ministers including the just elected President Pranab Mukherjee and Prime Minister Manmohan Singh. When he asked the crowd to raise their hands if they felt that Pranab Mukherjee and Manmohan were corrupt, all hands went up. The verdict was for all to see. He informed that Bulandsher court had summoned him on July 26 for saying that in our Parliament there are 162 MPs against whom serious allegations like murder and kidnapping are there.
Manish Sisodia who has just completed his Gram Sanvad Yatra covering more than 500 villages said that people in villages suffered the most. Even after 6 decades of Independence, the plight of farmers remained the same.
Kumar Vishwas reiterating the need for a strong lokpal asked people to take out time for the country and come out on streets with the tri color in hand from July 25th.
