Advani Anna

Yashwant Sinha, the senior BJP leader doing jail time in Jharkhand had an equally high-profile visitor today.

After almost 24 hours of sulking, LK Advani has accepted his party, the BJP's diktat that he must contest the general elections from Gandhinagar in Narendra Modi's Gujarat again. Mr Advani wanted to shift to Bhopal in Madhya Pradesh this time.

The BJP has given itself till tonight to resolve the deep crisis brought about by LK Advani's refusal to accept the party's decision that he must contest the general elections from Gandhinagar in Narendra Modi's Gujarat again. It has been advised by the RSS to allow Mr Advani his choice of seat.

While on his way back after winding up a crucial visit to South Africa, where he also attended the India-Brazil-South Africa (IBSA) summit to discuss the global economic turmoil, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh addressed a host of questions - ranging from Anna Hazare to Advani's yatra.

Anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare told NDTV today that he does not support BJP leader LK Advani's rath yatra against corruption. He said, "I do not support Advani's yatra; if the BJP is serious about corruption let them start with strong Lokayuykats in their states."

In an interview to NDTV, anti-corruption crusader Anna Hazare talks about the national support he has received for his fight against graft. He's also blunt about the Prime Minister and opposition leader LK Advani's plan announcement to begin a new rath yatra against corruption.
