Special Correspondent

Panaji, May 10: Gandhian Anna Hazare has decided to launch his nationwide campaign against corruption by holding his first-ever public meeting of the series in Goa.

India Against Corruption’s Goa spokesman Satish Sonak said that Hazare will address a public meeting at Panaji’s historic Azad Maidan at 5 pm on May 13.

Anti corruption crusaders like Kiran Bedi, Swami Agnivesh, Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia will accompany Hazare on his Goa trip and will be addressing the public meetings.

Sonak said that Hazare has recovered good health and will be holding nationwide meetings. “In Goa, he is addressing Panaji meeting while others will be present for meetings at cities like Vasco and margao on the same day,” he added.

Swami Agnivesh and Arvind Kejriwal will be addressing meeting at Margao on May 13 at 10.30 am while Manish Sisodia and Kiran Bedi will be addressing gathering at Vasco on the same day at 4 pm.

Sonak said that the awareness about issues like Janalokpal Bill and Goa’s Lokayukta Bill would be held during the meeting, which will be attended by thousands of people.

He said that these meetings are not affiliated to any political parties and hence people across all spectrum can join here. “We want that all those who oppose corruption should attend the public meetings so that a strong signal is sent to the corrupt people,” Sonak added.

    For Anna,it is too early to plunge into action again harping on corruption issue at this point of time.He has to wait till his brain child 'Lokpla Bill' come into being.Nothing could be achieved in a hurry.Lust for publicity should be dumped first.

    Hope Anna Hazare will weed out the corruption particularly the goan politicians who are looting their mother land.Sarpanch
    work should be scrutinize and brought to book all illegal activities. Goans should give proof with videos/pictures and other documents to be brought to book to Anna Hazare to take action.

    A very good news Gandhian Anna Hazare will start his public campaign against corruption by holding his first-ever public meeting of the series in Goa.
    Anna Hazare will address a public meeting at Panaji’s historic Azad Maidan.
    He will attract lots of people and by listen to him they will get encouraged and take him as an example.
    The movement against corruption will grow day by day.
    Corruption must be eradicated in India. Only then the poorest of the poor, the downtrodden can hope for a better life.
    The father of the nation GANDHI had a vision, a prosperous India with equal rights for all Indians, he wished harmony, peace and stability and all should have a meaning of life.
    Anna Hazare has taken Gandhi as an example and Anna convinces people from all walks of life in India by his life and deeds.
    Anna Hazare´s movement against corruption will reach every corner of India and Indians are getting aware that they can expect a better life after reducing corruption.
    Even the poor could lead a dignified life.
    what they need is education, medical healthcare and shelter and a basic social welfare system.
    Corruption is a hindrance and paralyses the whole Indian society to create a higher standard of living or to create enough jobs.
    Imagine India without corruption? It can be achieved and a secular and stable and shining India would play an important role in the new century.
    I am sure Anna Hazare will have success.


    Best regards

    The only hope left for India is ' Anna Hazare'.
    If the people of India, do not wake up from their deep slumber, may be another 1000 yrs, we may not come across personality like Anna.
