Impressed by Anna Hazare's agitation for a strong Lokpal Bill, a retired railwayman today announced an award of Rupess one lakh to the Lokpal activist for agitating for a 'good public cause.'
"My wife Uma and I have decided that we'll award Rs one lakh every year to someone who is championing a good public cause. We have decided to give the first award to Anna Hazare,'' 64-year-old Subhas Sarkar, who retired as Chief Commercial Manager (General) of the South Eastern Railway, said.
Stating that the award will be in memory of his son Saptarshi who died on October 19 last year under tragic circumstances, Sarkar said 'we'll contact Anna to find out where it will be convenient for him to accept the award'.
