Anna Hazare 1985 Different From Anna 2011

A recent sensation that shook the entire nation was a puny old man. His name is Anna Hazare. While his tirade against corruption made him a hero in 2011, going 26 years back, the same man was something else.
 
A close follower of Anna since many years revealed “In 1985, when Anna changed Ralegaon he was different. Now he has become fame crazy. For instance, he is saying ‘just by wearing Anna caps you don’t become Anna, one has to follow righteous life’. More than essence, he is giving branding to Anna caps.”
 
The source added “Anna is telling about simple living and not to think about easy money. If he is a true Gandhian he should say ‘I am an ordinary person just walking Gandhiji’s path. If you are coming then it is Gandhi’s greatness ‘. If he said that he would have become more famous but now with media coverage he is feeling like Gandhi himself.” A similar opinion is being shared by few other rationalists as well.
