Dear Annaji,

We received your reply in the form of your 'press release' to media in which you have once again retreated that "I praised only the developmental work done by Shri Narendra Modi and Shri Nitish Kumar in rural areas." That is what we are questioning - the "rural development model" of Mr. Narendra Modi based on the ground realities in Gujarat.

Our letter dated April 11 highlighted the ground reality of downtrodden masses of Gujarat from farmers to fishing communities, tribals and salt pan workers.  Please read it carefully. Most of us in Gujarat working for the working class, women, farmers, dalits, tribals, landless laborers and the downtrodden who wrote to you on April 11, have focused on the development that Modi claims has happened, but is a contrast in reality.

Your endorsement of Modi's development led to Modi writing an open letter to you minding you of a "vilification campaign". We hope you realise the implications of endorsement now.

For a chief minister who turned his backs on scores of farmers who demand their right to farming (the Mahuva agitation), on tribals who seek forest land, of turning blind eye to pollution in towns and villages (Ankleshwar, Vapi, Nandesari, Vatva, Saurashtra and Kutch). Fishing communities being deprived of their livelihood in Kutch, the instances are numerous - will you call it development Annaji.

Your vague clarification is only related to communal harmony and politics - which is not we in Gujarat raised to you in our letter on Monday, while pointing out your praise of Modi's development model is misplaced.

You could either visit the state to have a first hand look or could reach out to those affected and working in the state. We hope that you will relay on the facts and not 'false propaganda of the Government'.

Even your mention about communalism is very vague and you had not said anything about the role of Mr. Modi's Government in 2002 and the continuation of the worsening of the plight of most affected people particularly poor Muslim women and men. 

We need to look at the situation holistically and not in isolation as the rise of fascist communal forces in Gujarat who use ``development claims'' to mask all their shortcomings. The rise of fascist communalist forces in Gujarat is closely liked with the neo-liberal globalised development model.

We hope for a suitable and prompt clarification on your comments now.

Press statement by Anna Hazare

I am issuing this statement to clarify one of my statements which has been misinterpreted.

On a question asked in my press conference today, I praised only the developmental work done by Shri Narendra Modi and Shri Nitish Kumar in rural areas. Alongside I clarified that I am equally opposed to any form of communal disharmony. I am completely opposed to any kind of communalism or discrimination on religious or caste lines. I strongly condemn and oppose any kind of communal violence. People from all faiths and religions are founders, supporters and participants in this movement. This includes, Arch Bishop of Delhi, Mufti Shamoom Kashmi and others. I strongly believe in Gandhian values and principles of communal harmony.

I also wish to clarify that we are not attached to any political party. The movement is completely non-partisan and will remain so.

I sincerely urge the press to understand my intentions, which is to save this country from corruption by taking people of all faiths and religions along.

  K B Hazare
