Anna Hazare to change his name to Anna Gandhi to pass Lokpal Bill
Social activist Anna Hazare decided to change his name to Anna Gandhi so that the UPA Government will pass the bill. Anna Hazare made this announcement late night yesterday.
"I am Anna Gandhi today onwards, right from this time," roared Anna Hazare in front of lakhs of his followers yesterday night "I ask the cabinet committee of ministers to stop this 'nonsense' and introduce a stronger Jan Lokpal Bill in the next Parliamentary session."
Sources from Ralegan Siddhi said Anna Hazare had inspired from Rahul Gandhi who influenced Government's decision on passing an ordinance to protect convicted member of parliaments. The Gandhi scion recently called the ordinance as 'nonsense' and said that he would never buy the shit given by cabinet ministers including India's Prime Minister. Gandhi's scathing remarks hurt government which reversed its earlier decision. However, sources said that the Congress Party planned the entire drama to show that Rahul is not just a buttery baby but has grown up since past few days.
"That is what the government was interested in showing. Rahul's Raudra Avatar," said political analyst, in Delhi.
However, Anna Hazare's step to change his surname was a big shock to UPA government which didn't expect such an extreme move from the social activist.
"We can fight the idea of satyagraha or fast-unto-death activities but fighting a Gandhi surname is impossible for us," said Law Minister Kapil Sibal "There is no provision in law for disagreeing the orders of Gandhis."
Kapil Sibal confirmed "If Annaji has changed his surname from Hazare to Gandhi then we have no option but to bring 'strong Jan Lokpal Bill' in the parliament and take care to sail it through comfortably."
PM Dr. Manmohan Singh kept mum on the topic but said that he would be fine even if Anna Gandhi asks him to work as his steno after next elections.
