No entry at Jantar Mantar; Anna shifts fast to Rajghat

New Delhi: With Delhi Police refusing permission for day-long hunger strike at Jantar Mantar tomorrow, civil rights activist Anna Hazare today decided to shift the venue to Rajghat to avoid confrontation.
The announcement was made by his associates Arvind Kejriwal, Prashant Bhushan and Kiran Bedi, while contending the denial permission to hold peaceful protest was against the basic Constitutional rights of citizens.
Hazare and others will launch the day-long hunger strike to protest the crackdown against Ramdev’s congregation against corruption at Ramlila Maidan on Saturday night.
The Hazare-led protest will be held in the vicinity of Rajghat from 10 am tomorrow and will be accompanied by fast, an all-religion prayer meeting and a debate on Lokpal Bill.
