Anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare has written a letter to PM Narendra Modi in which he has slammed his government for not implementing the Lokpal Act even after three years of coming to power. As written in his letter: “Corruption has not ended; my conscience tells me to re-launch the agitation.”, seems like the 80-year-old Anna Hazare is all set to protest against government’s apathy in appointing a Lokpal.

भ्रष्टाचार विरोधी समाजसुधारक अन्ना हजारे ने प्रधानमंत्री नरेंद्र मोदी को एक पत्र लिखा है जिसमें उन्होंने सत्ता में आने के तीन साल बाद भी लोकपाल कानून लागू नहीं करने के लिए उनकी सरकार की कटु आलोचना की है। जैसा कि उनके पत्र में लिखा है: "भ्रष्टाचार समाप्त नहीं हुआ है; मेरी अंतरात्मा मुझे आंदोलन को फिर से शुरूु करने को कहती है।", ऐसा लगता है कि 80 वर्षीय अन्ना हजारे लोकपाल नियुक्त करने में सरकार की कोताही के खिलाफ विरोध प्रदर्शन करने के लिए तैयार हैं।
