The anti –corruption crusader Anna Hazare on Friday maintained government has no right to capture farmers land for any foreign direct investment [FDI] big project; moreover people enjoy absolute rights over all natural resources as forest, water, river, minerals, farmland, when government wants to interfere these natural resources for any purpose, people should be taken in to confidence through Grama Sabha.

Addressing a state level farmer’s conclave here hosted by Nava Nirmana Krusaka Sangathan, Anna said India became free after 300 years British rule, now the present government is inviting foreign company giving liberty in industrial sectors which is not good sign for the country, these FDI companies will capture India in future, yesteryears foreign rule would be restarted ,so he appealed attending farmers to oppose the government’s endeavor and praised efforts taken by people of Jagatsinghpur have been resisting country’s highest FDI project Posco since it signed MoU with Odisha government.

Speaking on parliamentary democracy Anna described Parliament or legislative assembly each is like a temple so good people should elect to these august houses so they would make good laws for the country benefiting people delivering good governance, but in present scenario at least 63 MPs in parliament have criminal background and criminal cases pending against them, about a dozen union ministers are facing corruption charges, so a government cannot deliver good governance unless good candidates are elected to parliament, eying 2014 election I will start my country wide tour from January 2013 with a motive to educate voters and countrymen to elect good people to legislative bodies, for making a vibrant democracy in country, Anna disclosed.

  1. Any Foreign Investor coming to India, is not here to provide social service. He wants to loot back with the profits. The only benefit a consumer can get till FDI routs all the traders, we all can enjoy 50% Off and Great Sales Promos. Once the traders are done, then the hard earned money of all Indian middle class is going to be pocketed and taken to their homelands. To make this happen, these FDI can wait even for 10 years. (Look at Walmart in china, still running at loss, expected to make profir only by 2015). My request would be let the sons of this soil, the Tatas,Ambanis,Birlas,Mittals do the investment in the agriculture sector, bring in the system and pay back the nation which has already gifted its natural resources for their well being.
