Govt’s dirty tricks dept probes Team Anna record, comes up with zilchRaman Kirpal Aug 16, 2011

In a series of goof-ups, the UPA government led by the Congress Party has launched a hush-hush preliminary inquiry into Anna Hazare and Kiran Bedi’s pasts.

Soon after the first episode of Anna Hazare’s indefinite fast for instituting an effective Lokpal bill ended, the government sent feelers to the personnel department of the Army Supply Corps to dig into Hazare’s past. Hazare had joined the Indian Army in 1963 and served as a soldier for 15 years with the Army Supply Corps.

Manish Tewari and Cong govt is now sitting on information they can't use.

Sources in the Indian Army reveal that Anna had left the Indian Army in 1978 and such old records are not maintainable in the Army Supply Corps stationed in the Army Headquarters in Delhi.

The Army’s record division is in Bangalore, and a rank of Major General was asked to look into Hazare’s records in Bangalore. The Indian Army, sources say, has apparently given its findings: the Army report says that his service record with the Army Supply Corps was ‘exemplary’.

The UPA government is understandably sitting over the Army report. Congress spokesperson Manish Tewari made a desperate attempt to character assassinate Anna Hazare by referring to an eight-year-old Justice Sawant report. He made allegations against Hazare out of context and thus the Congress’ claim fell flat.

In the process, however, Manish Tewari himself spilled the beans when he said: “Annaji keeps saying that the Indian Army is investigating into his records. A few days ago, the Indian Army received an RTI seeking past records of Anna. The Indian Army wrote to Anna to find if he has any objection against the Indian Army giving those records to the RTI person. Anna has not replied to the Indian Army’s query to date.”

Manish Tewari said this in his press conference and in a way he too confirmed that the Indian Army was asked to investigate into Anna’s past Army record.

Not only this.  A month ago, an investigating agency made several checks on fund sources for Kiran Bedi’s NGOs – Navjyoti and India Vision Foundation. On 3 January 2008, Kiran Bedi had launched two web portals – indiapolice.in (for the welfare of policemen’ families) and saferindia.com. Microsoft India, Intel and Infosys are among several organizations, which have provided funds for these two portals.

Kiran Bedi’s India Vision Foundation has also gone international. It has two offices in the US, and one each in Australia and Mauritius. The investigating agency is digging out the funding pattern. Also, it has directed the web host (in the US) of Kiran Bedi’s websites to provide logs and emails of the two websites, the sources add.

Government doing every thing to de-organise the anti-corruption movement and even trying to put false cases or meaningless allegations against the Anna and team. Wake up Government and try to feel the anger and protest across all the section of population across India.

It shame on our part...when a gentleman like Annaji fighting against corruption people in power should fortify his efforts,not harass them.This kind of cheap tactics and cheap comments by Digvijay Sing,Manish Thiwari and Kapil Sibal will prove that the Govt has no conviction in prevent corruption,on the contrary it is protecting the corrupt....Pity!

To all those who think that people on the streets do not understand what they are supporting, you may want to think that in the recent past there have been so many issues price rise, scams, terror strikes etc which were all raised by the opposition parties and they even tried mobilizing people to support the cause, but though it impacted the citizens non of this converted into a movement. BUT this issue of Corruption made an instant connect with each and every individual WHY??? Because every one has experience corruption some way or the other and most importantly those who are on the streets today very well understands that other issues like price rise, scams,long queues, bad roads, crumbling infrastructure and even terrorism STEMS FROM ONE ROOT CAUSE WHICH IS CORRUPTION.
So my only request to you and all those who are questing the intellectual understanding of the common man is not to belittle their efforts in rising up to a cause to kill one of the most dreaded disease i.e corruption.

Please understand this and please be corrected...Anna Hazaare is not saying "My way or Highway" if you are following his speeches and interviews you will get to understand that his point of view is - India needs a strong mechanism to tackle corruption and so request to our elected representatives is to bring out a Strong Lokpal bill - NOT NECESSARILY THE JAN LOKAPAL BILL , however that can be one option. Anna has not questioned the importance of Parliamentary democracy. His point of view is - THOSE WHO ARE IN THE PARLIAMENT ARE THE REPRESENTATIVES OF THE PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY AND SO IF THEY ARE NOT DOING THINGS IN THE RIGHT SPIRIT AS AN INDIAN CITIZEN WE HAVE ALL THE RIGHT TO PROTEST AND SUGGEST CORRECTIVE ACTIONS
