Way too busy

Social activist Anna Hazare might have failed to impose his views about the Lok Pal Bill on the UPA government, but he has certainly forced the finance minister and chairman of the Lok Pal drafting committee to undertake a tiring tour of the US. Earlier, Mukherjee was supposed go on a seven-day tour to the UK and the US. Now, Mukherjee will take a flight to Washington via New York on June 26 midnight. The next day, he is expected to arrive at Washington barely three hours before his first meeting. On the second day, Mukherjee will hold a series of meetings and take an early morning flight for Delhi. He is expected to arrive at Delhi around 3 pm on June 30 and the next meeting scheduled in North Block is at 6:30 pm.
