New Delhi: Casting
doubts on the credibility of Anna Hazare over his links with the
Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS), Congress leader Digvijay Singh
Tuesday asked the activist why he was opposing the Congress when
parliament had supported his demands on the Lokpal bill.
Digvijay Singh said in an open letter to the activist: "Your
statements that you are not aware of RSS supporting your cause,
raise doubts about your credibility."
"Whenever I have mentioned involvement of RSS with your
anti-corruption movement, you have suggested I be sent to a
lunatic asylum," he said.
Questioning Hazare's recent statements asking people to vote
against the Congress in the Hisar by-poll in Haryana, Digvijay
Singh said: "If you are seen along with the corrupt in your fight
against graft, how will the menace be curbed."
The Congress general secretary asked Hazare to trust parliament,
which endorsed his three demands on the anti-corruption Lokpal
bill, and wondered why he had still asked people to vote against
Congress.
Digvijay Singh said it was good that clean people like Hazare
joined mainstream politics.
"You must think who is benefiting from your decisions. When you
oppose the Congress, who are you seen with," Digvijay Singh asked.
