Anna: Will fight till my last breath

June 16, 2011 17:14

Arvind Kejriwal of the Lokpal Panel says the talks were a waste of time, yesterday, since the government has no intention of removing corruption. He said in fact, graft did not even figure in the government's agenda.

Meanwhile, Anna Hazare said he was going to fast again at Jantar Mantar on August 16.

Upset at the way the Lokpal meeting ended in a stalemate between the government and the civil society members, Hazare said he was not scared and was ready to face lathicharge.

Justice Hegde, the Karnataka Lokayukata said the meetings on June 20 and 21 were just a formality.
