What is mind-boggling for me is a situation that the Parliamentary STANDING COMMITTEE is asking ANNA and his team to present their Lokpal Bill for examination and eligibility for inclusion!
With the names , identity of some of the members in the committee , it seems like paradox or fate that certain members are going to examine the eligibility of a Bill , supported by the Nation (almost) as a whole!

TALE OF THE TIME : ( India Issue)
In Indian pariamentary Democracy , Dr. M.M .Singh, before being taken in as PM , was an MP from Assam, i.e he was a person elected by only a limitid number of people from a part of the Country(constituency)
After seeing and experiencing the overwhelming ALL-India popular support for ANNA's Movement , for LOKPAL BILL,and the support that is ever growing,- One naturally wonders how any Political party or even the PM (Chosen by the Coalition-Majority) can claim people's support and strength to enforce a 'Minority-whim' or impose any Anti-people choice on the people , decaring as Law?
One should look around on the present WORLD -scenario and be more Sensible and Wise.

PARADOXICAL
The DISTANCE and THE DIFFERENCE
Upto a evel of thought,even Einstein could not write off the Play of Pre-Destination !
The two great Democracies of the world are placed almost opposite sides of the Globe.The U.S.A is largest in size, smaller in population, wealthiest in economy and the oldest democracy onn time-line , while India is the largest in population, smaller in size, poorer in economy but youngest in political freedom.
Yet there are other differences too;
U.S.A has a Democracy where the PRESIDENT is the most Powerful one and has to win with Maximum nomber of support of the people .
In India the Picture is different . It is a parliamentary democracy where the Prime Minster( now Dr. M.M.Singh) is not the Most powerful person but the Majority Party-president is (now Mrs. Sonia Gandhi).
That is the crux and paradox of power STATUS. The Prime Minister was elected not by the whole people but by only a fractional Part of India(Assam)as MP and was then pulled in to fill up the chair of PM-ship and not with his own strength but by the party-choice,thus resulting in POWR-Failure or PoWer -Crisis .
And now the PM , helplessly ,is praying for a MAGIC-WAND or Complaining of 'COALITION -Compulsion'.
