After meditation, Anna begins fastKiran Bedi: We are not here to count numbers..thats why I am supporting Anna for 14 months.
We don't have to give up.
We believe that Lokpal will bring good governance.
Everybody looks for benefits instead of service.
We don't have to give up until CBI is brought under Lokpal.
We hope standing comm reco is rejected.
