This man, I think, is about to completely change not only India, but surrounding countries like Pakistan as well.   The Arab Spring revolutions that have swept across N. Africa and the Middle East are continually inspiring people elsewhere to challenge their corrupt governments (Canada and the U.S. are certainly corrupt at various levels...but are NOTHING in comparison).

I only hope that this inspires people to adopt the Ghandi mentality of peaceful disobedience, rather than another Arab Spring all-out revolt.
