Anna Hazare is a prominent anti-corruption activist in India known as the "next Mahatma Gandhi." He drew inspiration from leaders like Swami Vivekananda and Mahatma Gandhi. As a soldier, he witnessed colleagues dying in the 1965 war, which led him to pledge to remain celibate and serve the country. He initiated watershed development projects in his village that improved living conditions. Hazare formed anti-corruption organizations and used hunger strikes that led state ministers to resign. His 2012 movement again gathered thousands to protest corruption and pressure the government to take strong anti-corruption actions. Hazare is committed to fighting corruption for the youth and future of India.

ANNA HAZARE: RISE OF NEXT MAHATMA GANDHI
Early Life
Anna hazare
His days in the army were often spent in reading books by Swami Vivekananda, Mahatma Gandhi and Acharya Vinoba Bhave, from whom he drew inspiration. During the 1965 war against Pakistan, Hazare survived an attack on his post; however, he saw his colleagues dying. The incident left a deep impact and he pledged to remain a bachelor and serve the country in a bigger way.
Achievements:
His struggle for bringing about change began in his own village. A long time ago it was a miserable and barren place with scanty rainfall and lacking any economy. It suffered from frequent droughts. In 1975, Hazare initiated a transformation of his village through watershed development using nallah bands, check dams and contour trenches that raised the water table and helped villagers irrigate their fields. He also took up literacy programmes and measures to combat alcoholism.

War against corruption:
Anna formed the Bhrashtachar Virodhi Jan Andolan in 1991 which gradually spread across the state in the form of district-level vigilance committees. With his trademark khadi dress and Gandhi cap, Hazare used his ingrained strength to repeatedly go on hunger strikes that led to the resignation of six ministers from the Maharashtra government.
In 1995, Hazare's fast led to exit of two state Cabinet Ministers, labeled corrupt by the Gandhian and the Sena-BJP government was forced to drop them. Hazare did not spare the Congress-NCP regime either and in 2003, went on hunger strike against four ministers, Sureshdada Jain, Nawab Malik, Vijaykumar Gavit and Padamsinh Patiln, alleging they indulged in massive corruption.
