Conspiracy Theory!!!

Who is Anna Hazare ? Worse still who is Arvind Khejriwal ? How did one man become so active overnight? who supported him? where did the support initially come from?

In a country where there are innumerable protests daily, where the protesters are simple non entities in terms of public support ( remember the Yogi in the bed next to Ramdev who died a anonymous death inspite of a long protest against polluting Ganges ), how did an unknown suddenly gain so much of attention? Think!!!!

Media, political support and strategy must have played a vital role in what he is today. Without all these, the public opinion that he attracts today would not have been possible. If that is the case, then the question that disturbs me the most is ARE we as the youth of today being misled and manipulated for personal gains?

Is there a hidden agenda is this entire drama?

Is Anna's theatricals a part of a conspiracy to gain power ?

Is Anna misusing the Gandhi name to garner support ?

Would Gandhi support such theatricals?

Would Gandhi destroy his own country's identity as a great democratic nation by questioning and undermining the powers of a people elected government and the core model of a parliament run government.

If you think logically, some of the answers that come to your mind are rather disturbing. I think that what we are seeing here is the result of a few individuals holding an entire nation to ransom to satisfy a few aspirations of individuals / parties including some well established media houses. But what is rather more disturbing is the sheer ease at which the general public, specially our youth, can be manipulated.

Today we have firmly set the tone and the foundation to our own destruction. We have after 64 years of independence activated our " Self destruction" sequence. Now it's just a question of when....
