Fast forward

People like A Raja and Suresh Kalmadi in Tihar jail may have missed the chance to take valuable lessons from Anna Hazare on the art of protesting. But far away in Kolkata, West Bengal’s former CPI(M) minister Sushanta Ghosh, currently in CID custody in connection with the recovery of skeletons from near his residence, has decided to go the Anna way. Alleging that the Trinamool Congress-led government is resorting to political vendetta, Ghosh has now reportedly threatened to fast as a mark of protest.
