"We have come here to help Baba in his great movement to bring back black money from abroad. We want our country free from corruption, Dr Sadaqat Ali, convenor, Muslim Rashtriya Manch said.

"I want other Indians to support this pro-people sit in. They should come forward to protest the government at the Centre for not showing political willingness in getting black money from Swiss bank accounts," Ali said.

We are here observing fast with our Guru (Ramdev). It is a kind of operation clean up taken by him for the welfare of people, Rakesh Singh, a property dealer based in Delhi's Lajpat Nagar said.

"I have been associated with Baba Ramdev for past ten years. I want to get some knowledge from him to help in the welfare of other suffering in remote areas of my state. I am also observing fast to support him," Sanjay Kumar, who hails from Hisar in Haryana said.
