New Delhi: Anna Hazare
Saturday announced that he would start a national campaign against
corruption Jan 30, 2013, the death anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi.
"Today (Saturday) there was a meeting among 13 old members of our
group for over five hours. Soon there will be a national campaign
against corruption. I will start a nationwide tour from Jan 30,
2013," Hazare told reporters after the meeting.
"It is a misinformation that the team has ended. We have formed a
13-member team which will take forward the movement," Hazare said.
The activist also said he will inaugurate his new office at
Sarvodaya Enclave in south Delhi Sunday.
"We need to unite the country against corruption, we need a
revolution to change the system," he said.
Among those who attended the meeting were Kiran Bedi, N. Santosh
Hegde and Medha Patkar.
"This movement is back. This movement won't stop until our
investigating agencies become independent and non-participant,"
Bedi said.
Hazare Sep 19 confirmed his "separation" from his former team and
from key associate Arvind Kejriwal on the issue of forming a
political party and directed that his photographs or name should
not be used for political campaigning.
