Summary: The years 2010–11 witnessed tumultuous Civil rights campaigns against the deeply-embedded corruption in Indian society and politics. The advent of social activist Anna hazards and his India against corruption (IAC), ably supported by social activists and lawyers, gave rise to a civil society agitation of a kind unprecedented in the history of independent India. Anna and the lokpal Bill, 2010–2018, the second of Rajeev dhavan’s two-volume history of the lokpal Bill in India, provides detailed discussions and analyses of the events of these years and the Arvind kejriwal-led aap government that followed. The book also asks: what is Civil society. What is its relationship with political society. What should be the aims of both Civil and political society; and why were those in power so afraid of the ‘crowd’. https://ompublications.in/product/books/OM37566
