Terming the police action at the Ramlila Maidan as the reason for their boycott, the five-member team of civil society representatives led by Anna condemned the Centre for the midnight police action.
"We condemn this action. This is a blot on humanity... This is like throttling democracy" Mr Hazare said.
"After incidents of last night, it clearly shows the government's intention on crushing corruption. Hence, we have decided not to attend the joint meeting on Lokpal Bill tomorrow", eminent lawyer and panellist Shanti Bhushan said.
Accusing the government of not being serious about dealing with corruption, Mr Hazare also announced a day-long fast on June 8 at the Jantar Mantar in New Delhi. "Wherever you may be, you may stage a fast. And pray to god to give wisdom to this government", Mr Hazare said.
