Why THEY won't let Hazare's campaign succeed - Rediff.com News

Why THEY won't let Hazare's campaign succeed - Rediff.com News: "Sheela Bhatt analyses the aftermath of the Anna Hazare fast in New Delhi and says that war has broken out at multiple levels over the Lokpal bill.

Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, while returning from Kazakhstan's capital Astana to New Delhi, was asked, 'In the last few months, you have come under lot of attack from civil society. How much has the last few months disturbed you personally?'

He responded, 'Well I am not disturbed but I have always believed when winter comes, can spring be far behind!'


It seems Dr Singh is unrealistically hopeful.


It can be safely said that neither the ongoing summer nor the monsoons that follow are likely to bring the bounce of spring to his government. To size-up prime minister's hopes, just watch how this government is reacting to the Anna Hazare phenomenon.

The war has broken out at multiple levels over the Lokpal issue."
