Hazare vows to continue maun vrat

Amid a host of allegations being heaped on anti-corruption movement members, Anna Hazare has decided to continue his vow of silence. The decision, communicated by him in his blog entry on Thursday, cited his weak health as the reason for extending his maun vrat further.

This would mean that he would not attend the core committee meeting in New Delhi on Saturday which is expected to discuss controversies surrounding some of the key members of Hazare’s team, including Kiran Bedi, Arvind Kejriwal.
