Change is the need of the hour

Today our nation is visioning a change.. In the light of veteran social-idol Anna Hazare's hunger strike, people say that India will not be as it is or as it used to be before. We are said to be moving towards liberty in it's true sense. The liberty from corruption, which is the biggest evil in the way of the nation's development.
Anna is no doubt, a man of will, strength, determination and sheer sheer courage. But how is the campaign being perceived at grass-root level? The pressing need of the hour is change. The change in the mindset of an ordinary civilian. The most important question we should ask ourselves today is that how many of us are supporting the campaign in it's true sense? The present scenario can only be changed by bringing about a change in the traditional 'nuclear' thought. What has to be thought about, is that our support to this campaign, shouldn't be from an individual point of view, but from a national point of view.
The question we should ask our sub-conscious is that after the said Lokpal Bill being passed, how many of us who are supporting Anna's campaign today, will retain it's essence. And this can only be done by a migration from the thought of 'individuality' to ' integrity'. What is to be done is, using the law for national benefit and not aiding the corrupt system for our personal benefit. The reason being that even if a single mind doesn't change, this loophole can cause a failure of the entire campaign; as we all know that "Corruption breeds corruption".

I pray and hope that this feeling of being 'Responsible' dwells in every heart accross the nation.
