Anna Hazare to campaign against Congress in Hisar bypoll

Ralegan Siddhi: In what may come as a crucial blow to the government, 
anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare announced that he will campaign against 
Congress in the upcoming Hisar bypolls.

Anna Hazare said that he has received letters of support for a stringent Lokpal 
Bill from all parties except the Congress and now he plans to do a nation-wide 
tour, starting with Hisar. He added that if he is not able to make it to Hisar 
he will send a video message to the people of the district in which he will 
clearly state not to vote for any Congress candidate.

"I will appeal to voters in poll-bound Hisar in Haryana not to vote for 
Congress as it deliberately did not pass Jan Lokpal Bill," he said while 
talking to reporters on Tuesday morning.

Anna said that until Congress renders their support to the Lokpal Bill, he will 
go to five poll-bound states and tell the voters not to support any Congress 
candidate.

"I will not tell people who to vote for. Locals know who is capable and who is 
corrupt. They will decide. But I will urge them not to vote for any Congress 
candidate. No matter how good they are, they will be under a remote control," 
said Anna.

The Gandhian, however, said though he will campaign against Congress, he will 
not be supporting any other political party and he will leave it to the voters 
to decide who should represent them.
