Hundreds of supporters have started descending at the historic Ramlila Maidan in New Delhi, where anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare will break his 12 day-long fast at 10 am today, says the Hindu. Around 4,000 people stayed overnight at the protest venue while hundreds of others have started arriving early in the morning. "I started at around 5 a.m. as I wanted to ensure that I could be in the front row, so that I could witness Anna breaking his fast,' said 37-year-old Ramesh Kumar, a resident of Ghaziabad.
