Reclaiming Black Money!
There's a row over Baba Ramdev's proposed fast at Ramlila Maidan Delhi.His fast is aimed at recovering black money stashed abroad.Anna Hazare too made fast unto death for Lokpal Bill to eradicate corruptions in high places. Support he received from people across the country was so unbelievably massive and spontaneous ,perhaps triggered by manifestation of their time long pent-up rage against corruption,govt bent on its knees to concede to Anna's demand to draft a very stringent Lokpal bill.However,unfortunately members of the drafting commitee could not come to consensus and the fate of the bill is hanging in the balance.It must be pointed out since Independence several attempts have been made to pass Lokpal bill but it failed each time.Corruptions have increased manifold by this time too.Similarly union govts have promised to take measures against black money since long but practically nothing has been done to retrieve black money from swiss banks or from other safe havens abroad.Now when Baba Ramdev is going to mount pressure on the govt to recover black money through his proposed fast ministers are almost falling at his feet to dissuade him not to go on fast.Govt knows like Anna, Baba Ramdev too would receeive overwhelming and spontaneous popular support from all sections of people in the country that would shake the govt to the root.Congress men criticise. Ramdev or Anna has constituted ,in fact, extraconstitutional center of power as is evident from the attention particularly Ramdev is receiving from govt.Such critcism is, however, meaningless as it's the utter failure, both moral and administrative, of the govts to do their duties that have compelled Ramdev or Anna to come forward to mend the lapses done by the govts.

Scourge of unaccounted money popularly known as Black money is very old but the only thriving economy in the World, especially in India where it has been institutionalizsd by the ruling powerfuls.In India ruling cliques either Congress or BJP cannot fight it in real terms since they are in the custodians of black deeds associated with black money. Also people in power both present and past amassed black money either in Swiss banks or other suitable destinations safely. They will only talk just to play to the gallery with the sole aim of misleading the people.Some people with coloured garbs also venture into these turfs. So let's encore those who come into the arena. Result is in the hands of future which may dawn on us with immense possibilities when people will come to power.
