Combating Corruption Cancer in India

Please Join the Protest March- India Against Corruption- Ram Lila Ground, Delhi- 30 Jan 2011.
The decisive battle against corruption in India has begun.
India Against Corruption is a movement created by concerned citizens from all spheres, and professions, who've come together to fight corruption in India
Visit: India Against Corruption.
India Against Corruption, an NGO is holding a protest rally on 30 Jan 2011 at New Delhi at Ram Lila Grounds at 1300 hrs from where protesters would march to Jantar Mantar. A candle light vigil would be organized at Jantar Mantar the same evening.
That the average citizen is well aware and victim of rampant corruption that not only makes every day life a struggle, but impedes national progress, is too well known, to need recounting. We as (Ex) Servicemen, with deep rooted patriotic values, obviously have a concern over this all pervading malaise.
It's time we stop just talking about it, and synergize our efforts with groups working towards eradication of corruption.

The Indian Ex Servicemen Movement (IESM) supports the NGO INDIA AGAINST CORRUPTION, and would participate in their rally and march.
All Ex Servicemen (Particularly those in Delhi and NCR), whether IESM members or not, are requested to be present at Ramlila ground, Delhi by 1230 hrs. Closest Metro station is New Delhi Railway station, approx 1.5 Km away- 4-5 mins by auto.

Why you should be there? Simple. Because if you don't raise your voice OR strengthen movements such as this, you would have lost YOUR right to crib about 'Something wrong with the system' OR to raise queries like ' Why doesn't SOMEONE do something about it?"
Golf is good, so is your morning kirtan bhajan, but this does not happen every day.

Officers in Delhi, MUST be there.............NEED to be there. Please make it. Step out and rest assured, a good walk from Ram Lila ground would not only be exhilarating, but also likely to change the way things are.
Not only you, but get atleast 8-10 friends, family members etc along. It should be a good outing.

Please read the piece below. It's interesting. And a GOOD backgrounder on the event.
With Warm Regards,
Col RP Chaturvedi, IESM
