The District Bar Association, Bathinda today declared its support for Anna Hazare in his fight against corruption. A press released issued here today informed that the support was extended in a meeting presided over by Association president Rajan Garg. The lawyers criticised the UPA Government for arresting Anna Hazare.
In Mansa, Nagar Sudhar Sabha, an NGO staged a dharna in protest against the arrest of Anna Hazare in front of the Mansa railway station. Volunteers of the NGO pasted around 100 posters on which they had pledged their support for Anna Hazare.
Bharat Vikas and other NGOs of Bathinda have also announced their support Anna Hazare. These NGOs said they would intensify their agitation against corruption if no action is initiated by the UPA government.
Reports from Fazilka suggested that the heat of the movement initiated by Anna Hazare against corruption has touched this border district. Representatives of NGOs here have started a relay hunger strike at the historic clock tower from today to protest against the arrest of Hazare and in favour of introduction of a strong Lokpal Bill.
