Bangalore: Anna's movement has no doudt created a frenzy allover India. We presented the most happening centers of the crusader Anna Hazare in part I and here we again bring a continuation of the previous part.
Jammu & Kashmir
The valley seems to be indifferent in regard to Anna Hazare's movement. There has not been a murmur of protest in Kashmir valley in team Anna's favor. There are a lot of factors at helm for people not joining. Firstly, Kashmir being a Muslim predominate state, people are observing fast on account of holy month of Ramzan, so there is no fun in joining the fast as they are already fasting for religious commitment. Other reasons could be that J&K already has their Lokpal in the shape of Accountability Commission. Moreover, the RTI activists are confused whether to join the movement or not. On the contrary, Jammu has taken a lead in supporting the Anna Hazare movement. Main opposition People's Democratic Party (PDP) which draws its strength from Muslim majority Kashmir has preferred to protest in Jammu rather than the valley.
