Is Hazare movement funded by Presidential Religious Advisory Council?

After entering White House, President Obama created a President's Advisory Council on Faith based and Neighbourhood Partnerships. This council is the Presidents eyes and ears on religious affairs both domestic and international and his chief advisory body. This is headed by Joshua DuBois a Christian evangelist. 

This body has a representative from all religious communities and has one such seat for Hinduism but this is merely hogwash. The Hindu representative is completely sidelined and ignored and at the best tolerated. Most of the recommendations and reports to the President are anti Hindu and have been passed without allowing the Hindu representative to challenge, discuss or recommend changes. 

While reading the book Breaking India I can across a very interesting passage, considering the current movement of India Against Corruption (IAC) and team Hazare taking center stage and with some of its members (Kiran Bedi, Arvind Kejriwal, Prashant Bhushan) accused of being influenced and funded by agencies and organisations inimical to India, it seemed important that I bring to light the the following passage which reads as follows.

One recommendation of the above mentioned Presidential council on religious affairs was that the government assistance with respect to India should be 'awarded through partnerships with civil society organisations that have demonstrated commitment to work with poor communities.'

What does this mean? Does this mean that all the allegations of funding from Ford foundation which is known foreign policy tool of the US administration and more specifically the CIA is true? Is the US government and Christian organisations channeling funds through various sources into so called civil movements? How come this angle is not being investigated either by government or media. The funding angle of IAC and team Hazare has been widely reported but there has been no reaction from IAC and team Hazare denying or challenging such articles nor the government of India has launched any investigation into this issue.

Interestingly most articles talking about the foreign funding of IAC and team Hazare is being discussed only on blogs and but the main stream media has pulled out explicit stories that were published when this news had just broken out in August of 2011. 

In our enthusiasm to fight the evils of corruption that plagues our administrative system and daily lives we have to be careful who we follow and not let in a bigger evil that may endanger our countries very existence. Some may not have the same agenda as they claim. Many others may have hidden agendas. Let us not be misled by people who offer a quick fix solution to an evil that is so well entrenched. 

The Jan Lokpal bill is no magic wand, it cannot fix the evil of corruption and but will create a dangerous extra constitutional organisation of 'so called elites of civil society'. Lets not get misled by the promises of a few acting as prophets who are remote controlled by dangerous people.
