New Delhi, Nov 4: Changing his stand, Anna Hazare today said he will campaign against Congress in the five poll-bound states if the UPA government fails to get the Jan Lokpal Bill passed in the Winter Session of Parliament.
“Let anybody say anything. I will campaign against those who did not bring the bill. I will go and campaign and say do not give vote to Congress if the Bill is not passed in the Winter Session of Parliament,” he said addressing a press conference shortly after breaking his 19-day ‘vow of silence' at Rajghat.
Hazare said if the Bill is not passed, he will fast for three days and then will go for a nation-wide tour.
Asked if he will campaign against BJP, he said he will not campaign for the party. “I won't campaign for BJP. There is no difference between Congress and BJP,” he said.
However, Hazare praised Uttarakhand Chief Minister B C Khanduri for bringing a strong Lokayukta Bill and said he will honour the Chief Minister here for his “bold step”.
On Monday, Hazare had blogged that he would campaign in the five poll-bound states if the bill was not passed but would not name any party.
Team Anna had come under attack for campaigning against the Congress during the Hisar Lok Sabha by-poll with critics saying they are indulging in politics though they were claiming to be campaigning against corruption.
