And why has that letter been written now?

Well, Anna Hazare's  indefinite hunger strike to press for the passage of Jan Lokpal Bill entered the second day today. 76-year-old Hazare continues his fast at his village here braving the cold weather in Maharashtra's Ahmednagar district. The anti-graft crusader is on hunger strike near the Yadavbaba temple in the village, under the banner of Jantantra Morcha.
