Need for Urgency
Friends, we are in same urgency which drove Mr. Subhash Chandra Bose to travel across the world for First Freedom. This is our fight for freedom from Corruption. We need to drive it restlessly and urgenly for follwoing reasons:-
According to a 2005 World Bank estimate, 41% of India falls below the international poverty line of US$ 1.25 a day. Source They are the people who sleep hungry and deprived of basics in life.
Staggering 9% economic growth fueled by hard work of current youth is benefiting corrupt only, and not the poorest of poor who need it most.
Well, you all must be aware and have read about 2G, CWG, Cash-for-vote practice in elections, Radia Tapes, Illegal mining, black money stashed in foreign banks (shamelessly list goes on)... growth is just shooting corruption up, it is high time we fix this.
In last one year 11 RTI Activist got murdered brutally, and it is getting difficult for honest government officer to continue in their jobs. Find references (6-10).
We are not yet getting any support from National political parties (for reasons you can understand) and there is no sufficient support from print and electronic media (Though we live in a democratic country).
Internet and social networking site is only medium we can remain connected and plan our actions.
