Anna attacks Rahul;says FDI impasse aimed at delaying Lokpal

New Delhi, Dec 2: India's face of anti-corruption movement, Anna Hazare on Friday (today) slammed the Congress saying that it might have taken a U-turn on the controversial issues of lower bureaucracy and CBI in Lokpal under his instructions and claimed that the ruling party was delaying the resolution of FDI in retail to avoid the passing of Jan Lokpal bill in the winter session of Parliament.

The anti-corruption crusader has also blammed Rahul Gandhi for preparing an ineffective Jan Lok pal bill and said, "The change in stand on Lokpal Bill might be due to Rahul Gandhi's intervention."

Anna further said that he will launch a hunger strike on Dec 27 for eight days in New Delhiagainst the government for betraying the country.

Hazare's comments came a day after Parliamentary Standing Committee on Lokpal decided against the inclusion of Group C employees under the ombudsman and to have a new set up to select the CBI Director as against its earlier decision.
