Anna ka Judwa

He was located in Chorgao Raddhi , which is a small hamlet about 63 miles away from Ralegoa Siddhi , having a population of 1420 . There are no kids here, all are adults both males and females . This hamlet holds the distinction of having recorded no crimes what so ever ..which being as astounding and unbelievable as it could be , in today’s India, had draw the attention of social scientist from all across the world . Intense research was carried out , studies done and the final conclusion was equally surprising ..every resident of this town was a criminal , and following the unwritten code of criminals all over the world ..they lived with mutual respect .

Lootanna Hazare as he was popularly called had been the acknowledged village Boss , a leadership position , which was earned based on the degree of crimes committed . It was said that there was no crime which had escaped from Lootannas grasp , be it theft , dacoity , bootlegging or just corruption .Twelve years had gone by since Lootanna had adopted Chorgao Raddhi as his home and what a mammoth change he had brought about in this sleepy little hamlet since .In 2000 he had taken shelter here while on the run from law enforcement agencies and soon using his criminal contacts and ruthless ways driven away all those without a criminal background , the exceptions being ,the local sarpanch and the Police Patil .To his horror he had noticed that not a single person drank alcohol which had been banned nor did any one gamble ..he soon got the situation corrected and established multiple gambling dens and illicit liquor parlours .The few families who complained were driven away ensuring that all those who stayed back had a crime to boast of . Very soon the word had spread and application for the residentship of this hamlet came from far and wide .. Delhi having the maximum share followed by UP , Bihar , Chhattisgarh , Maharashtra , Karnataka and so on ..with about 90% of the applicants being sitting MP’s or MLA’s .Admissions were strictly merit based and yes there was no corruption in the process .. more shoddy the record better the chances .As per the latest census carried out the number of residents had swelled and it was reported as the fastest growing hamlets in India .

The people in the village were quite amused when they heard about Ralegao Siddhi and the fame of one of the residents there called ‘Anna’ .They were equally surprised to know of the huge following that this Anna had all across India and particularly amongst the youth in urban India ; the media had claimed this as peoples power ..how naive they thought …when the real power was so well concentrated in this small hamlet of theirs backed by the rule of law that they followed ..and so popularly called ..Parliamentary Democracy !
