Says politics will not deliver a better future to people
In an apparent sign that he is distancing himself from Arvind Kejriwal-led group’s political foray, Anna Hazare on Sunday said politics will not deliver a better future to the people and asked those planning to join his anti-corruption movement to contact him in Ralegan Siddhi.
Till now, the Hazare-led movement was headquartered in Delhi and run under the banner of India Against Corruption, a non-registered body perceived to be controlled by Mr. Kejriwal.
This is the second time in the past three days that Mr. Hazare commented on the issue anti-corruption movement taking a political turn. The first was in a video shot by those opposed to the political course taken by a section of the erstwhile Team Anna. The latest is in his blog post.
The remarks are significant as Mr. Hazare publicised the address of Brashtachar Virodhi Jan Andolan in Ralegan Siddhi as his contact point for those who want to associate with his movement.

If Kejriwal doesn't enter politics, we will have no one honest in parliament to represent people of India. Almost 120 of MPs have criminal charges on them! I think Kejriwal's decision to enter politics is exactly right.
Corruption, hate and abuse are a menace that afflicts all the humankind. It should not be politicized, I believe to a highest level of confidence. It should rather be defeated by collective efforts of all the people. Thanks

It is apparent that Kajriwal and Co has their own agenda and their own axe to grind. He is
aiming to promote himself by climbing on the shoulders of Anna team .He has grown to
big for his boots and thinks that he is only honest person in whole of India and all others are
corrupt. He has served most of his life in the department, thought to be most corrupt by
people and sees every one else through same specs which sees all assesses as
dishonest and all assessing officers try to make fast buck by harassing tax payers.
