Book Description
The last one and a half years have been defined by the anti-graft agitation led by Anna Hazare. His key lieutenant, Arvind Kejriwal, has played a central role in the movement.
In 2012, as it became clear that the political establishment was not going to accede to the main demand to the movement- to pass the Lokpal bill - Team Anna demanded the setting up of a special Investigation Team to probe corrupt politicians. On 25 July 2012, Kejriwal, along with two of his colleagues and Anna, sat on a fast to press this demand. However, with the government not responding, the movement made a difficult decision to try and provide a political alternative to the country.
This book, which serves as a manifesto for the movement going forward, gives practical suggestions as to what the ordinary citizen, the opinion makers and the political establishment in India can do to Provide establishment in India can do to provide a political alternative, or to achieve true swaraj (self-rule).
