While the PM rants the script written by the Party Chief’s secretary, Times of India raised a valid question – Rahul Gandhi too has defied the laws several times; especially section 144 when he went to UP. Chidambaram covers this up saying that Rahul was externed and brought back to Delhi according to the law.
I wish to ask here, the same could have been possible in the case of Anna Hazare, but why was he then unconstitutionally arrested? He was charged for no reason, and sent to Tihar. And after all the furor created by media and supporters of Anna Hazare, the credit for releasing Anna goes to Rahul Gandhi. As a citizen of India, I want to question how come Rahul Gandhi has the power to release a “criminal” charged under the law and sent to prison by the order of Magistrate , to be released?
Comments on the story in ToI show the kind of distrust and hatred the UPA is building every second with its miscalculated moves. Glimpses of some: achint (Ratlam)

RAHUL GANDHI IS A BIG FRAUD. HE is most corrupt person in INDIA. ============================== When Anna is arrested, the blame goes to Delhi Police. When he is released, the credit goes to Rahul Gandhi. I wonder how can a person who can he decide whether Mr. Hazare is to be arrested or not can somehow decide whether/when he is to be released.

Somehow I hate his face. Rather than solving the problem at core level he go and eat at poor’s home. What is use of that? Why don’t he solve their problem and provding jobs for everyone. Just a son of another gandhi. We need sardar patel who faces the situation and solve it rather than thinking of political milage.

This government has done more damage to itself by arresting Baba then and Anna Hazare now. Congress spokespersons are really fools to think that people will buy their argument that delhi police was responsible for the arrest and that the govt has nothing to do with it. Wake up you idiots. People can be cheated no more. Drop the double standards and succumb to the power of people. I am pretty sure that Congress will not be forming the next government. Enough damage has been done by themselves to themselves. I feel ashamed that i cast my vote to the congress in the last election. Manmohan Singh is no different a PM than the previous others. He is no mister clean. He is as power hungry as others. He is also the weakest PM i had ever seen.

The great Anna cant be compared with hypocrites like Rahul. Rahul supports farmers cause in UP and ignores the same in Pune. He seems to represent the Aam Aadmi only in the opposition ruled states. Breaching Sec 144 and several other laws without further trial is quite common for dynasty politics in India. Conditional permit for protests is present all across. But what would happen if 30conditions are imposed? Moreover the Anna’s team accepts 28 of those conditions rejecting only 2, esp because those 2 conditions will kill the spirit of the protest! Is it not reasonable? It may not be reasonable for the draconian government. It may not be reasonable for Congress but It is reasonable for me. It is reasonable for 1billion Indians.
