Anna Fast Venue

Soon after a team of policewomen dragged a struggling and screaming Irom Sharmila away from the tin shack that is the site of her protest this morning, Manipur's deputy chief minister emphasised that she has not been arrested.

Minutes before Team Anna ended its hunger strike on stage at the Jantar Mantar venue of their protest, they announced that they are forming a political party, which will contest the elections, with an aim to take their anti-corruption struggle to Parliament.

On the 10th day of his hunger strike, and just before he ended it, Team Anna member Arvind Kejriwal looked frail and sat on a chair as he announced that the anti-corruption activists would float a political party and take their campaign to Parliament. To much applause from the crowds gathered at the Jantar Mantar venue of Anna Hazare's protest, Arv...

Team Anna supporters today marched to India Gate from their protest venue at Jantar Mantar here in support of Anna Hazare's indefinite fast for a strong Lokpal Bill. Waving the tricolour and shouting slogans, protesters led by Team Anna member Prashant Bhushan, marched this evening from Jantar Mantar, where Hazare and his close aides were on fast,...

Amidst talks of his movement losing its steam, Anna Hazare, ignoring appeals from his aides and doctors, began his indefinite fast on Sunday in his demand for the Lokpal Bill. And the 75-year old activist was greeted by a much larger crowd than what has been witnessed in the past four days. Around six to eight thousand people turned up at Jantar Ma...

A group of people, claiming to be NSUI activists, created ruckus at Team Anna's fast venue at Jantar Mantar by shouting slogans against Anna Hazare, forcing volunteers to remove them from the venue.

Anna Hazare and Baba Ramdev on Sunday came together for a day-long fast in Delhi against corruption, the return of black money stashed abroad and a stronger Lokpal Bill. But the fast was not without its share of controversy.

Anna Hazare and Baba Ramdev smiled a lot as they shared stage in Delhi today to announce that they would fast together on June 3 to bring back focus on the Jan Lokpal and the issue of black money. They have applied for permission to hold the fast in Jantar Mantar in Delhi; a venue where Anna has held quite a few protests since last year.

Having vociferously asked for a discount on the rent of activist Anna Hazare's fast venue in the run-up to the protest that was called off a day early, the event's organisers now wants that day's rent back.

After the near flop-show at the MMRDA Ground in Mumbai, Anna Hazare has been keeping a low profile. Ever since his return to his village Ralegan Siddhi, Anna has not come out of his room and has not met his visitors. Anna ended his scheduled three-day fast on the evening of the second day itself. While many attributed the abrupt end of his agitatio...

He could not pull the numbers he had in his August protest in Delhi, but Anna Hazare's speech did not seem to hold any misgivings as he thanked the people for giving him energy and warned the government that if a strong and effective Lokpal Bill was not made law, he would campaign against it in five election-bound states.

Superstar Rajinikanth has once again come out in strong support of Anna Hazare and his Jan Lokpal Bill.

Mumbai's MMRDA Grounds is about to become a national landmark. Starting tomorrow, 50,000 people are expected to visit the venue where 74-year-old Anna Hazare will begin a three-day hunger strike against the anti-corruption Lokpal Bill that the government has prepared.

Anna, who is 74, will begin his hunger strike at 11 am, which is when Parliament will begin debating a Lokpal Bill that has got a big fat F from Anna and his team of activists, who have devoted this year to championing the urgent need for a strong anti-corruption law.

If Ramlila Ground is available, why do not you hold fast there: Bombay High Court tells Team Anna. Anna Hazare and his team of activists can't find a suitable venue for their protest in Mumbai, which starts on December 27.
