New Delhi: Delhi
Police Thursday denied permission to Team Anna to hold an
indefinite fast at Jantar Mantar here from July 25, citing
parliament's monsoon session, during which others also will have
to be accommodated for protest.
"We cannot accommodate only Team Anna for their protest at Jantar
Mantar. They had asked permission for fast from July 25 till Aug
8, which we cannot give as others will also seek permission to
protest as monsoon session will be in progress," said Delhi Police
spokesperson Rajan Bhagat.
Team Anna, which had announced that it would hold a protest
against the failure of government to enact Jan Lokpal bill, said
it would be launching public meetings across the capital from
Friday.
"As part of preparations for July 25th event, several public
meetings are being organised in the Delhi-NCR (National Capital
Region), especially in the rural parts, starting from July 6
(Friday)," said a statement by Team Anna.
"These rallies would be addressed by Arvind Kejriwal, Prashant
Bhushan, Kiran Bedi, Kumar Vishwas, Manish Sisodia and Gopal Rai,"
it added.
A Team Anna official added that the activists were discussing the
matter and contemplating their next move.
