WHY
Dear friends, People in power have proved that they don't want a strong anti-corruption law because it will stop them from looting the nation. We cannot let this happen and we need to take affirmative action to ensure that people win this battle. Anna Hazare has decided to give a final and decisive push to Janlokpal by announcing his indefinite fast from 16th August. India needs to be awakened to come out on streets on 16th August. Its time to walk the talk!
We invite friends who would like to lead/organise/coordinate a March from their own city.
HOW AND WHEN August 1 to August 10
A mass mobilization programme across the country in the form of long marches is being planned starting August 1. These marches will originate from different cities and city coordinators are requested to plan one starting from their own city. For instance, the first march will start from Delhi on August 1 and end in Meerut (55 km) on the next day. Civil society leaders like Arvind Kejriwal will participate in this march. Several marches have already been planned in different cities of UP (starting from their own cities and culminating in Lucknow/Kanpur). In Maharashtra a march is being planned from Pune to Ralegan Sidhi.
LOGISTICS AND PREPARATION
A person can easily walk upto 25-35 kms in a day. Keeping this fact in mind and the time at your hand, plan a march of 50-200 km (2-8 days), work out the route/itinerary and inform us. Sole objective of this march is to make people aware of this historic movement and to urge them to participate in it actively. You will need some posters/banners and pamphlets for the march. Many of you already have these, in case you don’t, we will send you the files and you can get them printed as per your convenience.
While marching, make sure you have regular stopovers where you can interact with local people. Try to walk as much as possible during the morning and evening while keep the afternoon for rest and relaxation. Also, do share your plan with the local media, once you have informed us of the plan, we will push it in the national media in Delhi.
Politicians of all colours regularly undertake such walks for power and support, but this time India will walk for a better and corruption-free India!!! Spread the word.
Ideas and suggestions are most welcome.
