New Delhi, Oct 17: With Congress pushed to a distant third in Hisar bypolls, Anna Hazare today said the party should take cue from the result and ensure passage of Jan Lokpal Bill in winter session of Parliament or else he would personally campaign against it in upcoming Assembly elections.
Hazare warned that the condition of Congress “would worsen” further if it does not learn a lesson from the poll debacle in Hisar.
“If the Congress still has not learnt a lesson from these polls then the condition would worsen further hence Congress should take a cue and pass the Jan Lokpal Bill in the winter session,” he said in his latest blog posting.
“Hisar saw Team Anna's workers campaigning for the anti-corruption cause but next, for the Assembly elections, it will be me, Anna Hazare, who will personally rally for the cause. I feel it is necessary for the well-being of the society and the nation at large,” he said.
He said Congress should stop blaming Team Anna and instead take strong steps for creating stricter laws against corruption in the ensuing winter session.
“It is becoming difficult for the common man to survive because of corruption. The denial for Congress arises out of people's enduring capacity which has crossed its limit,” he said.
Following is the posting made by Anna Hazare today in his blog after the Hisar Loksabha bypoll result:

My Dear Sisters and Brothers,
Namaskar!
Congress has lost the Loksabha by-elections in Hissar. Congress should stop blaming ‘Team Anna' and instead take strong steps in creating stricter laws against corruption in the ensuing winter session. It is becoming difficult for the common man to survive because of corruption. The denial for Congress arises out of people's enduring capacity which has crossed its limit.
If the Congress still has not learnt a lesson from these polls then the condition would worsen further hence Congress should take a cue and pass the Janlokpal Bill in the winter session. Hissar saw Team Anna's workers campaigning for the anti-corruption cause but next for the Assembly elections it will be ‘me', Anna Hazare who will personally rally for the cause. I feel it is necessary for the well-being of the society and the nation at large.
Nothing will affect our integrity neither the negative publicity doing rounds about Team Anna and nor the factors trying to create a rift in our team. Team Anna will stand united and strive hard for the effective implementation of ‘Janlokpal Bill”.
K. B. Hazare
