New Delhi, Jun 13 (PTI)

Anna Hazare-led activists today reacted sharply Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee for accusing the civil society of trying to undermine democracy and said his statement betrayed a ''distorted understanding of democracy and arrogance of power''.

The activists said Mukherjee's remarks show a "mistaken understanding" that the people have no role to play in governance and law-making once they have elected their representatives and they have formed a government.


The Government should understand that it is the product of the Civil Society and it is there to serve it.  It cannot dream to dissolve the Society for, it existed much before the Governments were created and shall outlive them.

Governments may come and go but the Civil Society shall go on for as long the human Society exists.  If, ever, it extincts, again,it would be on account of the faulty actions of the Governments only.
