Satyagraha Page #7

Synopsis: Satyagraha is the story of a son who yearns for a father. Of a father, who grieves for his lost son. Of a young woman who fights so hard with life that she has forgotten to love. Of an ambitious rabble-rouser, for whom action is the knee-jerk mantra. It is the story of how these four discover one another, and come together to raise hell, shaking the powers that be to their very roots! But, Satyagraha is also the story of an influential power-hungry despot who will stop at nothing to destroy them. Satyagraha: The revolution has begun!

what l witnessed here.

l'm ashamed.

Daduji rejects the compensation for his | son's death, to start a people's movement.

Manav sacrifices all his | billions to protect that movement.

And here...

l wear this uniform to | serve the goons in power.

Shame on me if l serve | the corrupt any longer.

The austerity of truth...

is greater than the grandeur of lies.

Daduji, please | accept me as your soldier.

l quit the police force.

Hi!

Let's go, Jolly.

l'm Sorry!

But why!?

For my irresponsible behavior.

lt's okay. You are | not responsible to me.

You cannot imagine what l have | gone through in these 3 days.

Yes. And, we had a great time!

we had so much fun.

l know... l know how l've hurt you!!

No you don't.

Yasmin...

Damn it! What do you think of yourself!

l abandoned a trip with the | Prime Minister and rushed here.

ln spite of knowing | everything about you, l trusted you!

And you?

Check your phone...

203 missed calls.

You didn't answer even once?!

Didn't even bother about what | l must've been going through?

The way they abducted you... | how worried was l!

With every passing second, l | would shiver with the fear...

that something happened to you.

And, you?

l'm sorry.

Never do this to me again.

Your intoxicating eyes, oh beloved

Your intoxicating eyes

Your intoxicating eyes, oh beloved

Your intoxicating eyes

l yearn for you night and day my beloved

l yearn for you night and day

l yearn for you night and day my beloved

l yearn for you night and day

Without seeing you l feel incomplete

Without seeing you l feel incomplete

Your intoxicating eyes, oh beloved

Your intoxicating eyes

l have anointed the place of our union

l have anointed the place of our union

with flowers for you

ln my body your fragrance lingers

as l swing in your embrace

l have anointed the place of our union

with flowers for you

ln my body your fragrance lingers

ln my body your fragrance lingers

as l swing in your embrace

The night of our | union has come my beloved

Your intoxicating eyes, oh beloved

Your intoxicating eyes

Your intoxicating eyes, oh beloved

This is where we found his body.

Such a tragic accident!

You think l'm a beggar?

Here the rate is 100 bucks.

l'm in bad shape, sir.

From block to district, | l've appealed 9 times.

But, no ration for me, no | pension for my old parents.

Our condition is now unbearable, sir.

Heard that?

What're you demanding money for?

Aren't you ashamed?

l'm helpless.

Once l take this register to my | superior, he'll want his share.

What're you doing, madam?

Please shut that.

Then process this immediately.

You will get no money here.

From now on, no more bribes!

Stop lecturing us!

l have to pay rent for | this table, understood?

We too have children and families.

Why should they pay for your | illegitimate arrangements?

lf you behave like this, | we will stop work.

Do what you want...

but we won't allow any corruption here.

What the hell is going on here?

Nothing.

A clean-up operation.

This place has become too dirty.

Get out from here, or else...

You'll get us arrested, right?

What else can you do, Mr. Collector!

Perhaps you've forgotten...

what happened the last | time you got someone arrested?

Now there shall be | only one kind of action.

People's direct action.

Arrest them.

How can you arrest us?

Too many people. Might cause a problem.

Final warning:
| lndiscipline will not be tolerated.

Change your ways! Or we'll be back.

Everyday!

Until this system improves!

Sir, we admit that | the system has failed.

But, are your methods right?

What do you mean?

The way your people | manhandled officials...

threatened them...

lsn't this plain hooliganism?

Well, you...

One minute...

Please stand up.

This is Nekram.

His father took an agricultural loan...

from a public bank.

lt's been seven years...

since they repaid it with interest.

And yet, they're still making | the rounds of government offices.

His father passed away last year.

And yet, they just | cant get their land back!

Now, would you like to advise him...

on what he should do?

So what's the plan of action?

The Peoples Satyagraha Committee has | deliberated over this and has decided to...

place their instructions | in front of the Government.

lnstructions?

Yes, instructions...

ln a democracy, the Government | functions to serve people...

lndeed, then, the | people are the masters.

And a master doesn't plead, he commands.

First instruction...

Get rid of the Ambikapur Collector.

Second instruction...

C.B.l investigation of the | Police action at our rally.

And the third instruction...

Make laws via an Ordinance.

Guarantee people the | right to Government services.

Approval... not disposal...

Gone are the days when a | file could be stalled.

And this law be enforced immediately.

Within seven days.

Seven days.

How can such a vital law be | implemented in just 7 days?

Do you realize the implications of this?

lf not pressurized, even | 700 days wont be enough.

lf an Emergency can be declared | in this country within 24 hours...

7 days are more than | enough for this Ordinance.

And there will be no compromise.

So, according to you, what | is the future of this country?

This is lndia's future! Ravi Kumar.

Parents were labourers.

The government-run school of | his village was totally defunct.

By painstakingly saving money...

they sent him to a private school.

After school, they took a loan | to fund his computer training.

Today he works in a private firm, | not in the government.

Salary:
40,000.

He is the future of our country...

Unlike his ancestors, he | doesn't worship the government.

The government is merely a | service-provider to whom he pays fees...

in the form of taxes.

lf he doesn't get service, | he will stop paying.

Like any other client | - Period!

This new lndia is telling the | government and politicians to wake up!

lmprove your roads, power, | police, hospitals, officers...

Repair your entire system!

Otherwise, you have no future!

He's going berserk, sir.

ls vitiating the | atmosphere in Ambikapur.

Say the word, sir...

Shut up, fool!

Eager-beaver!

There's nothing he can do.

l have everyone's life-line in my hands.

They've threatened | complete non-co-operation.

They'll stop paying taxes, and...

Look...

There are laws in this country!

lf those are broken, | strict action will follow.

Please pass on these instructions | of the people to the government.

What are you doing?

Calm down.

This is wrong.

Stop it.

Do what you can!

Your deadline ends in 7 days.

We will not rest...

until our instructions are followed.

This matter is getting serious now.

This is an open revolt! | Direct attack on the Collectorate.

How could the cops allow this?

Sir, perhaps the Home Minister | would like to share his plan of action.

Tough action is required.

The government cannot | appear weak. We will...

We will invite them for a discussion.

Mr. Kalikant, this | movement has no public support.
