A very interesting news item I discovered while looking for the pre-lokpal Anna on google. It is somewhat funny when considered in the present scenario:

Sunday, August 17, 2008
And of course, I'm sure member of IF must be aware of the boycotted-by-media public rally at Delhi at which BR and AH shared the dias; till that time shri Hazare was a relatively regional figure and was full of reverence for Baba Ramdev. Incredibly interesting!

Quote:Hazare, who received the award for social work, said, "Rajiv Gandhi was the first politician in this country who brought in constitutional amendment for decetralisation of power."
"He led a spotless life. He would be an inspiration for the youth," Hazare added. [color="#0000FF"]Hazare received the award from senior Congress leader Digvijay Singh.[/color]
