Hazare accepts police proposal to fast for 14 days

Social activist Anna Hazare has accepted the Delhi Police proposal to fast for 14 days at Ramlila Maidan beginning today. With this the deadlock between Hazare and Delhi police over the duration of his fast has come to an end.

Anna's associate Kiran Bedi said that Anna has accepted the Delhi Police permission for two weeks of fast. She said Anna will be at the Ramlila Ground after 3PM. Bedi said the conditions which were earlier unacceptable to Anna team have been removed by the Delhi police.
A Delhi police spokesperson told that the breakthrough came following the meeting of Hazare aides- Bedi, Prashant Bhushan, Manish Sisodia and Arvind Kejriwal with Delhi Police Commissioner B K Gupta shortly after midnight.
Anna is likely to leave Tihar jail Thursday afternoon.
