    Rahul Gandhi is a big drama master. He is just playing in the public taking advantage of his position. Do you remember he travelled in Mumbai local train just to show that he is a ordinary(rich)man..please try to recollect the drama's he made in Rai barrely.. Don't beleive his words as he doesn't know whats going in around India. He is in his own world of his own.

    Big Blow to Kejriwal...
    Well-done Anna's team co-operating with congress/bjp to introduce Lok Pal Bill..
    Let it go..amendments can be made as and when needed...
    System cannot be changed all of sudden..
    Credit now completely gone to none other than Anna Hazare..
    Kejriwal only announce..will not do anything..by just wearing topi..
    Delhi winter is not suitable for Kejriwal...He spoiled hope of 28 people..who left there multi-natinal jobs and joined the party..Jai Ho..

    Congress would have saved their face if they had passed this bill 2.5 years back when Anna protested in Delhi.

    In last 2.5 years I am sure 25 lakhs crores have been day looted which helped migrated lady to become one of the richest in the world. She is so rich so that she could get her name removed from the LIST OF WORLD's RICHEST WOMEN.

    All the poli ticians committed to the strong Jan Lokpaal bill..but only in the public forum so as not to annoy us common people as they need our votes. In reality...they will never try for the implementation of strong anti-corruption bill as they are draped till nose in it...They will prefer loosing the election but Lok Paal...NAAAMA....!
    Lokpaal bill passed in this month means Parliament will be empty next month.....!. Ayyo Raama....we can not even imagine the HOLLY place like Parliament becomming empty..and one lonely Punjabi can not run the country....
