Dissolve Parl: Ex-Army chief shares stage with Anna
October 29, 2012 18:07
Former Army chief VK Singh addressing a joint press conference with Anna Hazare right now. Reading from his notes, Singh says the government is anti democracy. "The government is not concerned with its people and Parliament must be dissolved," says Singh.
In August this year, Singh had shared the dais with Anna Hazare at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi. He had arrived at the Team Anna protest site shortly before the protesting activists were to call off their fast at 5 pm.
A distinctly uncomfortable VK Singh now says that the Congress and Opposition are silent on major issues. "Farm land is being distributed to corporates. LPG prices have risen and the reason being given is that petroleum companies are running huge losses. But that's not true."
