Students protest at Berhampur University supporting Anna Hazare


BERHAMPUR: The country wide support for Anna Hazare’s anti corruption movement has also found massive support at the Berhampur University campus. A rally was taken out by the students' Union of Berhampur University at the Bhanjabihar campus. Students from all the departments participated in the protest march and marched on the rally by holding placards on hands and making slogans against Anna Hazare’s detention. The students were seen raising slogans opposing the UPA Government’s decision of disallowing the peaceful protest of the common people led by Anna. On a huge gathering at the University bus stand the protest march was started by members of the students union which later joined by maximum number of students from various departments. According to the Student’s union president R. Santosh reddy “The ruling Government has started a dictatorial form of governance by not giving the right for a peaceful protest to its own citizens. Being the youth of the country we support the Jan Lokpal Bill prepared by Anna Hazare to end the huge scandals made by our politicians and Bureaucrats and we demand to free Anna ji by allowing him to protest for the jan Lokpal Bill.”

  1. It's a complete mis-conception. People are just reacting emotionally. The Lokpal bill is not going to stop corruption.
    Ther are so many bills/Acts in india i.e FEMA, Money laundering bill, Customs Act. Has all the eveils have stoped against which these acts are made.

    By challening the Parlimaent- we are actually eroding the democratic set up of India.
