Former army chief V K Singh has said he and Gandhian Anna Hazare are planning to resume their nation-wide tour from Bihar to create awareness among people for systematic changes in the country, besides recruiting volunteers to spread their message.

On a tour to the US to accompany Anna Hazare during a portion of his US trip, General (retired) Singh said while they have nothing to do with the coming Lok Sabha polls, their aim is to create awareness among voters so that they elect good people and bring about a positive change.

"Our aim is very simple. Voters must choose good people so that we can bring about a positive change," he said.
