I support a peaceful, non-violent and people-driven movement to bring about positive change in the country. I support Anna Hazare and I am aware that some well-meaning citizens don’t. This is my attempt at justifying the support for Team Anna and trying to answer some of the questions criticizing the movement.
Why can’t a computer engineer always fix computer problems or an electrical engineer fix all kinds of electrical problems? Is it because most professionals tend to work more on the fancy stuff than on the basics? To succeed in their respective fields, each finds the need to evolve by adapting to the new/cutting-edge/innovative developments of his/her field. And in pursuing all of this, they keep moving away from the basics.
I guess most professionals do this. And they do it well. They excel at what they do daily, their niche skills become finer and finer and they compete with others within a subset of their domain.
I did the same. Until I came across an interesting project.
