Anna Hazare speaks out on BJP's CM candidate Kiran Bedi, who was a close aide in his India Against Corruption movement.
Hazare has so far refused to take calls from Bedi and is allegedly hurt that she took the decision to join politics without consulting him.
But breaking his silence, Anna said, that while he does not want to comment on Kiran Bedi, he maintained that politics was dirty.
Hazare, whose IAC campaign won extensive support from the middle classes in 2011, had not been in favour of going into mainstream politics. Both he and Bedi - had opposed Arvind Kejriwal's move to launch the Aam Aadmi Party.
