Besides common people, members of the Rotary Club, Lions Club, Sindri Chamber of Commerce and Gayatri Parivar also sat on dharna to support the cause.
Addressing the gathering, speakers stressed on the need for a strong Lokpal bill and autonomous CBI to bring the corrupt to book. Tearing into the UPA government's attempt to shield the corrupt politicians and bureaucrats, the speakers held the Congress and its policies responsible for poverty, unemployment and lack of basic amenities in almost every part of the nation.
Coming down heavily on leaders, speakers of Team Anna said Mahatma Gandhi and Jai Prakash Narayan did not contest elections but that does not mean that their contribution to the Indian politics was less important than those who enjoyed the politics of power.
Anna and his team has created an awareness on corruption prevailing in the nation that is not going to die down so easily whatever repressive measures the government may adopt they opined and called upon the government to honour the public sentiments and pass a strong Lokpal Bill at the earliest.
