Anjali Damania: A Homemaker's Fight against Corruption



Bangalore: Anjali Damania, the India Against Corruption activist and the whistle blower of the Maharashtra irrigation scam dropped a massive surprise by backing up that the ‘next big expose’ would be against the BJP’s President Nitin Gadkari. Anjali stumbled into activism after joining IAC movement like hundreds of others last year.

Towards the end of September this year, Damania had revealed on national TV that BJP’s national president Nitin Gadkari had snubbed her when she went to meet him for helping her in the irrigation scam, as reported by Ketaki Ghoge for Hindustan Times.

It was reasoned that since Anjali had taken up clubs against NCP over irrigation scam, it would have made sense to keep BJP as friends, particularly since she had no evidence to back her claims.

Damania had stood her ground in spite of Gadkari sending her a defamation notice. She insisted that he had told her that he has business relations with NCP chief Sharad Pawar.

Anjali has made a comeback, after scanning and investigating in Nagpur, Gadkari’s hometown. However, IAC's charges against Gadkari have put him in a hitch.
