Friends,
Recently, fall of corrupt Governments in Tunisia and Egypt was driven by
netizens. In India,movement initiated by Anna Hazare is not only hitting the
headlines in press and media, there is plenty of material available on the
internet.
I searched for "India Corruption" on Thank You and was surprised at the
results; some of the links are placed below. These short videos explain the
problem more cogently than written words.
It is my sincere hope that this mass-movement would result in effective
anti-corruption measures.

Indian anti-corruption movement finds inspiration in California march
By Matt O'Brien
Contra Costa Times
Posted: 03/27/2011 12:00:00 AM PDT
A movement to curtail political corruption in India is finding
inspiration in California, where six men on Saturday completed a
240-mile protest march across the state.
The anti-corruption protesters strolled through the Bay Area suburbs
this week amid heavy downpours and cold weather. They attracted local
curiosity but are making bigger waves abroad.
"I firmly believe that all these things, which seem so small in their
initial stage, can become a big movement," said 70-year-old marcher
Kewal Parnami, of Tucson, Ariz. "If they can keep the fire ablaze,
something will come of it."
Parnami was following in the symbolic footsteps of Mahatma Gandhi,
whose 1930 Dandi March against a colonial salt tax was a turning point
in the movement for India's independence. The California journey,
called Dandi March II, was for a different cause: ending the systemic
corruption that has stunted India's otherwise remarkable economic
growth.
"There is so much corruption going on," Parnami said. "It's like
cancer, eating the vitals of the economy."
The retiree moved to the United States from India in 1979, and
remained mostly apolitical until just over two weeks ago, when he
heard about the planned march from San Diego to San Francisco and
packed his bags.
"Mahatma Gandhi is my idol," Parnami said. "I just wanted to become
like him, a guy who has such a great discipline, such a deep faith."
The march, and the hundreds of Indian-Americans who have come to watch
and cheer it, reflects a growing frustration with the status quo of
Indian politics. It also reflects a growing awareness that the
hundreds of thousands of Indians abroad can have a role in doing
something about it.
"The diaspora is more conscious because they've seen something
different, they've lived something different," said Ujjal Dosanjh, a
member of Canada's Parliament and the former premier of British
Columbia. "They have something to contribute. They have perspective.
They can say how things should be."
Dosanjh was scheduled to greet the marchers when they reached San
Francisco on Saturday, but the Vancouver politician dropped out after
Canada's ruling government was toppled by a parliamentary vote Friday.
Like many immigrants who were born in India, Dosanjh said he is deeply
attached to his native land and wants to see it prosper. But it is
going to take tremendous change from the Indian people and their
leadership, he said.
"When more than half your economy is underground and not accounted
for, when everything from buying railway tickets to seats in college
to government jobs and grants -- when everything you have to do
involves bribery and corruption -- it can't be a nice place to live,"
Dosanjh said. "I believe you can make all the laws, you can create
institutions but ultimately you actually need to change the human
beings. You need to change the values."
Though corruption is a longtime problem in India, a flurry of
high-profile scandals has infuriated the Indian public in the past
year. Last week, U.S. diplomatic cables leaked by the WikiLeaks group
revealed another involving an alleged cash-for-votes scheme.
"The corruption, both in India and across the world, has risen to such
an extent that it's started affecting the common man's life," said
Cupertino resident Sreekanth Godey, a march organizer and Microsoft
engineer. "This is a walk to let the government know enough is
enough."
The marchers are pushing for legislation that would bring more
transparency to government and protect whistle-blowers. Their march
has already inspired dozens of other protests planned this weekend in
75 cities worldwide, the organizers said.
Unlike Gandhi's legendary 240-mile march from the city of Ahmedabad to
the seaside town of Dandi, the California route was not contiguous.
The crowd was also a lot smaller: six full-time walkers as opposed to
the tens of thousands who joined in Gandhi's civil disobedience.
Dandi II began March 12 in San Diego, where the marchers met two days
of polite resistance from a counter-protesting group called
Organization for Minorities of India. The counter-protesters believe
Gandhi, who came from an upper-caste heritage, did little to improve
the lot of those at the lowest rung of India's caste system.
After reaching Los Angeles County, the Gandhi-inspired marchers
skipped the 400-mile stretch between Southern California and the Bay
Area, renting a van to get from Artesia to Berkeley.
Then, they walked south through the East Bay, stopping at the Indian
Community Center in Milpitas, where they delivered a message to a
prominent visitor: Meera Shankar, India's ambassador to the United
States, who was there to give a talk.
"She said, 'We're going to look at it.' That's the standard government
answer," said march supporter Kal Raman, of Foster City. "At least she
was civil. She was noble about it."
The marchers continued north through the Peninsula, singing a Hindi
phrase -- hum honge kamyab, which means, "We will succeed" -- as they
were drenched by a rainstorm.
"Blisters are there, but the body got used to it," said Orange County
marcher Srihari Atluri, 33, speaking after he reached downtown
Burlingame. "It bothered us more in the first five days, but now it
doesn't bother us anymore."
The march ended with a rally Saturday afternoon at the Gandhi statue
outside San Francisco's Ferry Building.

Most of the communities in India (such as Bengali), are succumbed in 'Culture of Poverty'(a theory introduced by an American anthropologist Oscar Lewis), irrespective of class or economic strata, lives in pavement or apartment.
