Former PM I K Gujral comes out in support of Anna Hazare

Coming out in support of Anna Hazare, former Prime Minister I K Gujral today said the Gandhian's campaign against corruption has made the common man feel empowered and realise that he can be an " agent of change" in the society.

In a letter to Hazare, Gujral appreciated his "singular effort to galvanise" the entire nation of the issue of fighting corruption, which has spread to every organ of the society like a "cancer".

"I dare say that your clarion call has stirred our nation in a manner that is reminiscent of our Independence struggle, when young and old, rich and the poor selflessly dedicated themselves for the success of a movement that shaped our future," he said in the letter
