Sunday, August 14, 2011: Ahead of Anna Hazare’s proposed fast on Lokpal, the Congress on Sunday launched a no-holds-barred attack, saying he should first clarify the “serious” findings against him of a commission that probed graft charges and accused him of attempting to bring instability in the country. “The fast from August 16 has nothing to do with either the issue of corruption or the Lokpal bill,” party spokesman Manish Tewari said, claiming that the “moral core” of Hazare has been “ripped apart” by the Justice P B Sawant Commission.
The Commission had probed corruption charges levelled by Hazare in 2003 against four ministers in the then Maharashtra government.
“The fast from August 16 has nothing to do with either the issue of corruption or the Lokpal bill. If that was the case, Hazare would have first clarified the grave charges.
