That's right doctor. But, the illiterate are vulnerable to political oppression and have mechanisms to cope with in a manner which may be wierd for the affluent. They know that following the desires of those living in ivory castles would be suicidal. Problem is that the doctors of social reform design their programs sitting in airconditioned libraries. The realities on the ground are entirely different. When their programs fail they blame it on the corruption. Only getting your feet dirty in election campaigning will give you a first hand experience of where exactly the problem originates. We have absolutely literate colonies in Porvorim but election results will show you that the corrupt and criminal has polled the highest votes in these areas. Corruption is not so simple as Anndas make it out to be. It is a complicated science in itself.

The intellectuals who are not fanatic oriented have seen through Anna's game. as Idhar- Uddhar nicely put it: http://www.epaperoheraldo.in/Details.aspx?id=1839&boxid=4119328&uid=&dat=10/9/2011 Dr. Ferdinando dos Reis Falcão.
