FACT: Anna's team has launched nation wide protest culminating in a fast on to death on the 16th August 2011. Anna is throwing provocative statements. “The police and army is with us. At traffic signals, policemen stop us, express their support and wish us well. At Rajghat, policemen donated generously for the movement.” Anna Hazare issued a statement on 4 August 2011.
“Is it right and proper to bring the army and the police in to this?” Karan thapar asked Swami Agnivesh a Team Anna member in a TV show.
“What he has being suggesting and what the society wants is a strong Lokpal Bill. The response is so wide spread that every section of our society seems to be up in arms.
"In fact, even when I travel, security personnel at airports come to me, approach me and say --you stand strong on your words and you all are doing very good work -- Senior police officers, security officers and even army generals have walked up to me” Swami Agnivesh of Team Anna said in this interview (ref: moneycontrol.com 11 August 2011).
OWL WATCH: Baba Ramdev is silent because he is monitoring his declared wealth sitting at Patanjali. Swami Agnivesh is now the front runner. Swami Agnivesh has a good link with CPI (Maoist) top leaders too. Team Anna is also talking about some army generals and senior police officers. Are ultra left and ultra right forces joining hands to “stabilise” the nation by making India corruption free?
