Parliament gives nod on key elements of Jan Lokpal Bill. Its “people’s victory” says Anna Hazare and broke his 12-day-old fast on Sunday declaring that electoral reforms will be on top of his agenda next so that corruption can come down. The news channels filled with footage of wide spread celebrations from all walks of life in all corners of the country. Such was the movement that prompted BJP to support Anna Hazar-e (hazar means thousand in Hindi) and Rahul Gandhi to make a statement in the Lok Sabha. The support from the country men underlines to what extent Corruption has corrupted the people.
Even the Aishwarya LokPal, Katrina Lokpal will not work as they cannot stay charming for eternity.
No system works as long as we have the unending itching sensation in our minds to earn more, to spend more, to buy more, to breathe more, to shit more!

I really really liked the last sentence.
And of course Jan Lokpal is not an end-all corruption weapon. But let’s hope for the best. Better than having nothing.
