PANAJI/MARGAO/PONDA: Four days after social activist Anna Hazare ended his "fast-unto-death" strike at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi on Saturday- after the government issued a notification constituting a committee to draft an effective Lokpal Bill- his supporters in the capital city broke out into a victory rally.While Azad Maidan erupted with cheers and the tunes of 'We shall overcome', fireworks and candles lit up the area. Over 150 prominent citizens gathered there at 7pm and thanked Hazare for inspiring them to fight for an empowered Lokayukta for Goa.While whose who wished to were given a chance to express their thoughts, the crowd applauded activists Jane D'Mello, Shravan Barve, Neri Fernandes and Valmiki Naik who went on a night-long fast on Friday.Naik said, "We did this because the time for talks and discussion has long passed. We, especially the Goan youth, need to stand up and be counted as we have the highest number of youngsters as compared to any other developing nation. We have to sow now as our children deserve better."Comparing the nationwide protest to Gandhi's Dandi march, artist Subodh Kerkar said, "Lokayukta has already been implemented successfully in Karnataka and the government can seek the guidance of Justice Santhosh Hegde and social activist Arvind Kejriwal to implement it in Goa."Members of the crowd agreed, while in unison demanding that like at the Centre, the Lokayukta committee in Goa too, should have 50% of its members from among the government and the other 50% from the civil society.In the commercial capital, at 5.30pm, the Margao municipal garden was filled with mellifluous music-the strums of guitars accompanied by songs and slogans. The over-100-strong crowd marched around the garden waving the national flag and hailing Hazare.Demanding that the Lokayukta be implemented in Goa, the group vowed to strengthen participation, especially from among the youth, to this movement. Kare Law College student Hasiba Amins addressed the participants, "On Friday, we witnessed the participation of over a 100 people, and on Saturday, even more people have gathered to celebrate a victory for the people of India."Meanwhile, at the same time, members of the Goenchea Rakhondarancho Avaz (GRA) also gathered at the collector's office to celebrate Hazare's victory and demand a Lokayukta in Goa.In Ponda, a member of 'India against Corruption', Sunil Desai revealed that the group had actually organized a day-long token hunger strike to support Hazare on Saturday, but turned it into a "victory meeting" after the 72-year-old Gandhian ceased his hunger strike.Over a 100 people gathered at Dada Vaidya Chowk near Ponda's old bus stand on Saturday morning and instead, voiced their support to the anti-corruption movement initiated by Hazare.Speaking at the meeting, advocate Satish Sonak said that the state needed a Lokayukta Act to curb corruption. Stating that the Right to Information Act is a great instrument that people can use to find out information about government affairs, Sonak said, "To oppose corruption, one should abstain from paying any undue amount to any officer."Stating that Hazare's fight against corruption is only the beginning, Desai said that the evil needed to be curbed at a local level. "Hence, people should first stay away from corruption," he said.
