He wants to be Kangana Ranaut, if not Narendra Modi. If he was 20 years younger and knew how to outrage people through Twitter, he would even have some chance to succeed.
Anna Hazare as the face of the Lokpal movement was a hit. And for all the reasons Gandhi mentions in his book. Anna Hazare was a Gandhian, a school of thought and mode of action that has great resonance in India, even today. He did not fit in neat ideological boxes: he was neither too Left nor too Right.
Most importantly, he had the credibility to lead an anti-corruption movement. He had earlier held fast-unto-death protests and had achieved resignations of ministers.
He earned a good name as a rural development person and for RTI activism. He was already familiar with the idea of the Lokpal Bill. So the people who were mesmerised by Anna Hazare were supporting an idea, of which he was just the face. Should they be embarrassed about it today? Not at all. It was just the times we lived in. If you think the Anna movement failed in achieving the political change it campaigned for, the blame for that should go to Arvind Kejriwal. Anna was actually the victim.
What the Anna Hazare story should leave us with is the importance of credible faces who have the courage to lead the demand for change. Just imagine if the national opposition had such a face today. India needs free, fair, non-hyphenated and questioning journalism even more as it faces multiple crises. But the news media is in a crisis of its own. There have been brutal layoffs and pay-cuts.
