The protest against corruption in Hyderabad spread out on Tuesday with more independent groups surfacing to organise their own rallies. On Tuesday, around 200 techies took out an anti-corruption rally at Kothaguda junction in support of Anna Hazare's cause and to create awareness about the Jan Lokpal Bill. On the other hand, Hyderabad Kirana Merchants' Association at Begum Bazaar took out a rally saying that members of five other associations were joining them.
Each group had a different reason to participate in the anti-corruption rallies. "There is a perception that people dwelling in this part of the city do not really care about the cause. This rally was to make people aware that we do care and we too want a corruption free India. Though the number of techies that turned out was not very huge, slowly we will increase in number," said Bala Subramaniam, an IT professional.
Employees of firms such as Microsoft, Wipro, Infosys, CA, Google, Deloitte, Dell, HCL, and Tata Consultancy Services, among others participated in the protest
