Will support Ramdev fast,says Anna

We will fight together against corruption, he said.

Anna Hazare said today that he would support Ramdevs fast,but warned the yoga guru that the government plays fraud by first agreeing to demands and then backing out.

I will support Ramdev so that the government does not do what it did when we were fighting. We will fight together against corruption, he said.

Hazare also criticised the government for sending four senior ministers to the Delhi airport to meet Ramdev on Wednesday. There was no need for so many ministers to go. One or two ministers would have been enough for the talks. When so many ministers go,it means there is a plan of fraud. Sign papers,make promises,all this is to pass time, he said. Once the time passes,they government will do what they want. When I went on fast,it reached such a stage that the government conceded to all our demands to save itself. Now,they have backed out, Hazare said.

He was referring to the question of bringing the Prime Minister under the purview of the Lokpal,which he claimed the government had agreed to earlier but now disfavours.

Baba Ramdev has been raising the issue of black money for so many days. Why did the government not think of doing something on the issue? What we want is action and the fight against corruption will continue throughout the country till we get what we want, he said.
