Ralegan Siddhi, Nov 29: Claiming that the draft report on Lokpal Bill by Parliamentary Standing Committee is a “betrayal”, Anna Hazare today threatened to go on an indefinite fast in Delhi from December 27 if a strong anti-graft law is not passed in the Winter Session of Parliament.
Hazare, who also announced that he will sit on a one-day fast in Delhi’s Jantar Mantar on December 11 on the issue, sought to put Congress on notice saying he will tour the five poll-bound states and tell electorate how the government was betraying them on the issue.
The 74-year-old activist said his indefinite fast will be at Ramlila Maidan in Delhi from December 27 if a strong bill was not passed. If it happens, it will be his third indefinite fast this year on the Lokpal issue.
