Uma Bharti, who recently made a comeback to Bharatiya Janata Party, on Tuesday said the United Progressive Alliance government was deliberately 'discrediting' Anna Hazare and Baba Ramdev for channelising growing discontent among common people against the UPA government.
Ahead of their proposed protests in New Delhi, Anna Hazare and yoga guru Ramdev on Tuesday launched an attack on the UPA government accusing it of not showing enough resolve in tackling corruption and bringing back black money stashed away abroad.
Supporting social activist Anna Hazare and yoga guru Ramdev's joint crusade for a strong Lokpal bill, Uttar Pradesh Chief Minister and Samajwadi Party leader Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday said his party welcomes all those fighting black money and corruption.
"I had a strong belief in Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, but now I do not have faith in him," Hazare said during his visit to Ratnagiri.
Former army chief V K Singh has said he supports the issues raised by Anna Hazare and Ramdev but has not yet decided on joining the anti-graft activists.
