New Delhi: Anna Hazare has put off his planned yatra against Congress demanding a strong Lokpal Bill and will now wait till the end of winter session of Parliament.
“Anna will not say anything now. Wait till the winter session is over. He will wait for the winter session. Let us see whether Congress brings the bill,” Arvind Kejriwal, a key Team Anna member, Indian media reported on Friday.
However, other members of the Team would visit Uttar Pradesh from October 17 educating people about the need for a strong Lokpal. “We will ask people to wait till the winter session and will ask them not to vote for Congress if they do not bring the bill in the winter session,” he said.
On October 17, the team will go to Banda in Bundelkhand and Kanpur and the next day, they will be in Unnao and Lucknow.
Asked why they were not opposing BSP, Kejriwal said, “There is no need for that. Even if Mayawati desires (that the bill is enacted), the Lokpal Bill will not come. But if Sonia Gandhi desires, it will come in two minutes. So we need to frighten Sonia and not Maya.”
