A war of words has ensued between social activist Anna Hazare and Shiv Sena chief Bal Thackeray.

Thackeray had said that Swami Nigamanand’s hunger strike did not get as much publicity as Anna’s stir in Delhi because the swami had no corporate backing. He had also said Anna’s agitation was charted by corporate brains and hence the agitation got too much publicity.

Anna said on Friday that Thackeray should prove which corporate brain had supported or charted his agitation.
