Hazare a mask of RSS,like Ramdev: Digvijaya

Stepping up the attack on Anna Hazare and his team,Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh alleged that the activist was a mask of RSS like yoga guru Ramdev.

Stepping up the attack on Anna Hazare and his team,Congress general secretary Digvijaya Singh on Monday alleged that the activist was a mask of RSS like yoga guru Ramdev and was being used to divert attention from the arrest of Sangh members in terror cases.

The Lokpal issue,Singh told reporters here,was raked up to divert the attention of the people from the arrests of various RSS activists in connection with terrorism and others in corruption cases. They BJP and RSS formulated this plan. First they made Baba Ramdev as its mask and then Anna, he alleged.

The Congress leader said,I respect Anna Hazare as he is a Gandhian but,unfortunately,he is surrounded by wrong people.

To a question about his allegation against Team Anna member Arvind Kejriwal,he said,Kejriwal is still a government employee. The government has not accepted his resignation. He is still an officer of Indian Revenue Service. Has a government employee right to open campaigning? Has he the right to collect donation? If 40 lakh employees cannot do it,how can he Kejriwal do it, Singh said,asking as an IRS officer how many scams has Kejriwal brought out.

He said the government has respected Team Anna and invited them to the drafting committee but it was Opposition which had problem with it,not us. With PTI inputs
