SWAMI AGNIVESH REGRETS BEING SEEN AS ‘VILLAIN DURING ANNA’S FAST
Social activist Swami Agnivesh today(16th September,2011) regretted being seen as a 'villain' for voicing differences on the manner in which anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare's fast was carried out in its concluding phase. 'I was looked upon like a villain. This is not the first time I voiced my differences about the way the movement was carried on,' Agnivesh told But he said he would continue supporting Anna's movement without compromising on his views and right to dissent. This was a movement that inspired people, especially youth, after the Jayaprakash Narayan led movement in the 1970s, he said. Agnivesh said he had opposed Anna's fast plan from the start and also questioned the decision to start it on Aug 16, the day the Lokpal bill was to be taken up by Parliament. He said Anna should have called it off when Prime Minister Manmohan Singh urged to him to do so from Parliament. 'I thought that was the golden moment for Anna to end the fast.' Agnivesh replied in the affirmative when asked if Anna was persuaded to continue his fast by a 'coterie' close to him. He wanted Team Anna to ponder why the movement failed to ensure due participation of Dalits and minorities.
On the controversy over his telephonic talks with one Kapil when Anna's fast was on, he said 'this Kapil is not Kapil Sibal or Kapilmuni of Hardwar,' but somebody who to a certain extent represented government's view on the Lokpal issue.

why i am telling this- before 1 day of annas zed security providing, Manmohini told that annas job was over and govt wud do its next job!
was govt. afraid of anna that anna wud go against govt. again in further poll?
then, (may be), congress fabricated the security question of anna by attacking Kejrilal! they might have made ground to provide security to anna!
now, providing security to anna is nothing wrong but is it so easy that anti-national, anti-public, anti-hyndu congress govt. wud provide security to anna so easily when anna himself was going against the congress govt.?
I HAVE BIG DOUBT ON CONGRESS SINCERITY AND THEIR ACTION! WHAT U SEE FROM IN FRONT , MAY NOT BE WHAT CONGRESS IS THINKING!
I presume, congress has the mischivious plan to provide security to anna!
now, with the pretext of security, congress will come to know, annas every next action, who is meeting anna , what they r discussing, every detail! Anna will not be allowed to go anywhere in public to deliver his speech in upcoming elections! He will virtually loose his freedom!
have u all thought in this angle? may be u disagree with me!
