Khemkaran, September 1965. An Indian military convoy rumbles towards the fighting zone. Suddenly, two Pakistani Sabre jets drop out of the sky and scream in to attack. As bombs begin exploding around him, Kishan Baburao Hazare, driving a truck full of soldiers, speeds up. But when a splinter grazes his forehead, he ducks below the dashboard and jams on the brakes with his hands. The windscreen shatters and bullets riddle the man sitting next to Hazare. The 25-year-old driver tumbles out of his truck and prays fervently as the two Sabres strafe the convoy again. When they finally disappear, dozens of jawans lie dead. Of the few survivors, only Hazare escapes serious injury. “You saved me, God,” Hazare says, over and over again. “But why?”
Anna Hazare was a relatively unknown figure when this article was first published in 1986. Since then, Hazare has won innumerable awards and honours including the Padma Bhushan. Today, he is nationally known for his many crusades, especially against corruption. It was largely due to him that Maharashtra’s Right to Information Act was passed and then amended in 2006. Meanwhile, Ralegaon Siddhi has become a model for many other villages in the country.

Where do Sonia, Rahu, Baba Ramdev stand in front of such human efforts and human dignity... Shame on the Government to be accusing and demeaning a common man of India.. Its time the common man fights back for every nickel of his hard earned money that this government has been looting.. Manmohanji hope you are listening (still hoping you can do something and are not like the 'Rubber Stamp' President)
