No democracy left in India anymore: Anna

After a long lull, social activist Anna Hazare today said there is hardly any democracy left in the country because of rampant corruption.
"People are supreme in a democracy but due to rampant corruption in which governments have done a doctorate, no democracy was left in the country," Hazare, who arrived in Guna as part of his 'Jantantra Yatra' along with the former Army chief General V K Singh and ex-MLA Sunilam, said.
Despite giving in writing, the central government had not brought the Lokpal Bill as promised and thus cheated people of the country, the Gandhian alleged.
