It seems not irrelevant to point to an earlier post.

I suspect most people reading this would not actually have visited the Ramlila Maidan in recent days. I haven't either. So here's a write-up by two people who have. It seems to me that there is a lot of misinformation, among the "elite" commentators, on the nature of Hazare's movement, team and supporters. And to whatever extent the Gandhi comparison may or may not be valid, he does seem to have Gandhi's ability to speak directly to the people. I don't think -- from my quick reading -- either the Government or Jan Lokpal bills do a great job, but I think the government has betrayed total insinncerity on even discussing the matter, and the anger is legitimate.
