Cong-BJP tussle heats up over Anna's RSS 'links'

October 13, 2011 11:34

The ongoing tussle between the Congress and the BJP over social activist Anna Hazare's alleged links with the RSS has turned into a political potboiler.

The issue gathered steam after senior Congress leader Digvijay Singh revealed the contents of a letter allegedly sent by senior RSS leader Suresh Bhaiyya Joshi to Hazare in April, when the activist was holding a hunger strike demanding the enactment of tough anti-graft laws.

Espousing Hazare's cause through the said document, the RSS had extended solidarity with his anti-graft campaign.
