Ralegaon (Maharashtra): Gandhian activist Anna Hazare has decided to sit on indefinite hunger strike from Dec 10 at his native place Ralegan Siddhi in support of his demand for Jan Lokpal Bill.


Hazare has written a letter to Prime Minister Dr Manmohan Singh in this regard.

The timing of the fast is important, as it comes two days after the results of assembly polls in five states will be declared on Dec 8.

Hazare had sat on indefinite fasts in Delhi and Mumbai on Jan Lokpal Bill, but the government brought a bill in Parliament which was at variance with the draft Jan Lokpal Bill.

It was passed in Lok Sabha, but could not be passed in Rajya Sabha.
