Anna Hazare Kites

 

Anna Hazare Kites

            In the early November month of 2011, I was on assignment in Gujrat and touring all along the Ahmadabad City as well as interiors of Gujarat state. In the mean time I was moving around in a densely populated area of the city where a shop selling kites of Anna Hazare grabbed my attention, then I asked the shopkeeper why these kites have the pictures of Anna Hazare? He smiled and replied that this Aanna Hazare is a saint and is in the process of changing the present political scenario in Delhi with churning out a great revolution with Arvind Kejriwal ,  at that time Arvind Kejriwal and Co. was also in very lime light and relevant with the revolution with a broom symbol so that he will broom out the corruption from the present government of Delhi as well as of other states.. I also came to know that the shopkeeper is stocking Anna Hazare kites for the Kite festival which commence on 14th of January next year.

            Those days of squatting and demonstration in New Delhi against the Congress government, which Anna Hazare was leading was talk of the days and he was seen as 2nd JP and mentor of Arvind Kejriwal, they both were on hunger strike near Jantar Mantar. Arvind Kejriwal  used Anna Hazare as stepping stone and later become chief minister of Delhi and ruling the state in whimsical way and nursing the desire of becoming Prime minister of India one day, as his party  also grabbed the power in Punjab. Thinking it as great achievement he started ignoring Anna Hazare and slowly Anna lost in oblivion.

As this is the time of general election and most of the party are in fray and shedding sweat and campaigning for their respective parties Arvind Kejriwal is attracting eye balls of every Indian through electronic, print medias as well as through social media 24X7 and the person who made him is no where now, sometimes his feeble voice like dropping of a pin is heard but of no use and nobody taking care of him. He is used and thrown by his own disciple, so in this way the time is taken a full circle let us see what is next?
