Anna Hazare given NDTV Indian of the Year award...!

There is no doubt about the popularity Anna Hazare got when he started his struggle for bringing a corruption free India. Scores of people form all walks of life offered him unconditional support. In a short period of time Anna Hazare became a people's crusader and everyone's leader. He was compared to Mahatma Gandhiji and affectionately called as modern Gandhi and a man of secularism.

Today Anna hazare was chosen as an Indian of the Year by popular English News TV channel of India, NDTV. Not all people of India are happy with this news as Anna, who showed no political or communal links then, has started showing some soft-corner with a communal political party of India BJP recently.

This has caused a lot of concern in the minds of people who really love democracy and secularism and they have started to realize the hidden agenda in Hazare to please a sect of people of a particular religion.

Some people hence strongly feel that Anna cannot be considered as a true secular person and he is not eligible to receive such an honor from an organization like NDTV, led by a real democrat and visionary, Prannoy Roy...!
