36,743 citizens of Delhi sign up for AAP’s Civil Disobedience Movement
 
On the first day of Arvind’s upwas 36,743 citizens of Delhi have challenged the Delhi Chief Minister Sheila Dikshit saying that they will no longer pay the illegitimately high electricity and water charges inflated due to her corruption. They have joined Aam Aadmi Party’s Civil Disobedience and have boldly given in writing they will no longer pay these bills.
 
In this unique Civil Disobedience Movement AAP volunteers fanned out across Delhi and carried the truth of the inflated water and electricity bills. The volunteers are explaining the collusion of Shila Dixit, BJP and the discoms owned by Tatas and Ambanis. 
 
Meanwhile Arvind continued to fast in the house of a common man in a low income settlement at F145, Opposite Gagan Cinema, Near Murga Mandi, Sundar Nagri, Delhi-93. On the morning of the second day of his fast Arvind’s morale was high and charged with the warmth and support of thousands of aam aadmi.
 
In less than a few hours of campaigning, there was a overwhelming response from the common people who said their lives had become impossible due to the excessive bills and they were more than willing to join the Civil Disobedience Movement collectively. Our volunteers told them that if lakhs of people come together and refused to pay these wrongful charges, the strength of the people will defeat the corrupt rulers.

Save Dissent to Save Democracy   THE rising instances of physical violence and threats against political opponents and the inability to accept dissent must raise huge concerns amongst all of us who see democracy as perhaps the really stellar achievement since Independence. AAP’s attack on BJP headquarters and acts of arson committed under the very noses of their elite leadership; the attacks on Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia in Gujarat in the last two days; the recent manhandling of the caretaker of journalist Siddharth Varadarajan’s house by some garden variety thugs; and the violence and threats meted out regularly to their political opponents by political parties is surely deplorable and condemnable. This is a fatally flawed trend which will destroy the very foundations of our democratic institutions if not pushed back with all the strength and condemnation that the civil society can mobilise. Replaying the past To begin with, it must be clarified that we should ...
