The onlookers in Sector 17 were in for a surprise as a group of people sang hymns in praise of ‘Corruption devta’ on Thursday. A closer look showed satirist and actor Jaspal Bhatti in his own unique style all set to join Anna Hazare on his anti-corruption campaign starting from Varanasi. Carrying along an idol of ‘Corruption devta’, Bhatti and members of his Nonesense Club put his point across at the Sector-17 Plaza.
‘Corruption devta’ was given a warm send-off before it went on a tour of Varanasi, Lucknow and Sultanpur.
Bhatti said if the menace of corruption was not stopped the day would come when “we will have to have a ‘temple of corruption’ in every state”.
“I am going to demand land from Mayawati ji for raising such a temple right in front of the Secretariat in Lucknow. If those indicted in corruption cases pay obeisance at this temple regularly for 11 days and offer 11 per cent of their black money, they will be acquitted of the charges against them by the grace of ‘corruption devta’,” said Bhatti.
