Anna Hazare has given the government an ultimatum. He has warned that if an effective anti-corruption Lokpal Bill is not passed before the Winter Session of Parliament ends on December 22, he will begin an indefinite fast on December 27, will ask people to participate in a jail bharo movement from January 1 and commission demonstrations outside the home of any MP who votes against the bill, or tries to dilute it.
But speaking to NDTV , Kiran Bedi has indicated that "if Anna sees Parliament engaged on the Lokpal Bill, he will be willing to wait."
"If Anna sees Parliament is engaged in drafting the Lokpal Bill, why will he go and sit on a fast on December 27? Why will we do a jail bharo from January 1? If Anna sees the Parliament engaged, he would love to facilitate the engagement," she said.
