Amid allegations by a Congress spokesman that the US was behind Anna Hazare's agitation,US Senator John McCain today said America neither gets involved in such agitation nor has any intention of doing so. He also described Indian democracy as "strong and successful" which will be able to address the current domestic "disputes and conflicts",saying the current protests were "expression" of a democratic system,which may not be one of the most "pleasant experiences." The US does not involve itself in what is taking place in the world's largest democracy and neither it has intention," McCain said when asked about speculation that he cancelled his political appointments following the comments by Congress spokesman Rashid Alvi suggesting the US was behind Hazare's agitation. Referring to a remark by US State Department Spokesperson urging India to allow peaceful protest",Alvi had yesterday alleged that "it is for the first time that the US has said something like this and put pressure on the government to allow Anna to run his movement.This has never happened earlier. This is a big question on which we have to think and discuss seriously." McCain said people can have their views but there was only one set of facts.
