Anna Hazare has now warned the government that he will not negotiate with them if the fasting activists are forcefully removed from the Jantar Mantar protest site. Hazare and Arvind Kejriwal said they saw a conspiracy to take the activists to hospital to end the stir for a strong Lokpal. Kejriwal, whose health deteriorated along with that of Gopal Rai on the eighth day of their fast, said that it will be protesters' responsibility to get him out of the facility if he is forcibly taken there.

With the government showing no inclination for talks to end their stir, a worried Team Anna held discussions this morning among its members on the way ahead and decided to adopt a tough stand. .
