Social activist Anna Hazare was detained by the Delhi Police at his residence ahead of his proposed fast against corruption on Tuesday. Arvind Kejriwal, Kiran Bedi and Manish Sisodia were also taken into preventive custody by the Delhi police.
"When Anna asked what are the charges against us, the police said that they have been instructed to do so," added Kiran Bedi.
"When our freedom is restricted, it is as good as being arrested," Kiran Bedi said as she courted arrest on Tuesday.
Prashant Bhushan said he will move court. "I will approach the court today" he said "There will be massive protests across the country including Delhi. The government will not be able to handle the storm now," said Bhushan.
"I request the people of the country to go to jail. Going to jail for the betterment of the country is good," said Anna Hazare on Monday.
Around 500 police personnel have been deployed from early morning itself after the city police imposed Section 144 around the venue of the fast.
Earlier, senior police officials, including DCP (Crime) Ashok Chand, met with Hazare on Tuesday morning in a bid to convince him to not go ahead with his planned protest defying prohibitory orders.
