Very well thought and inspiring..
I think one should never compare himself to any other person in this world but people are comparing Anna Hazare as Gandhi but i do not think he is equal to Gandhi as Gandhi struggled for the freedom and Anna Hazare is struggling for the Corruption so people should know to give him his own reputation rather then comparing him with any other !
