- Anna Hazare today decided to associate himself with Baba Ramdev's hunger strike with a warning to the yoga guru that he should not be swayed by the overtures made by the government saying it plays "fraud" by first agreeing to demands and then backing out.
- Hazare, who rattled the government in April through his fast for a stronger Lokpal that generated widespread nationwide support, said all those fighting against corruption should not be satisfied with the oral assurances of the government.
- Hazare said he would join Ramdev at Ramlila Maidan in Delhi, where he is to sit on a fast-unto-death protest, on Sunday, emphasising that there was no divide in the civil society on the issue of corruption. "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 criticised yesterday's extraordinary step by the government to send four senior ministers, including Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee, to Delhi airport to receive Ramdev and talk to him there. "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.
