Anna Hazare will come out of Tihar Jail at 11 am and will go to Rajghat, the samadhi of Mahatma Gandhi, before he launches his fortnight-long protest from Ramlila Ground.

73-year-old Hazare, who is on a fast for the fourth day and had spent the last three nights in Tihar Jail, will address the crowd of supporters that have been thronging outside the prison complex for the last four days.

Mr Hazare’s associate Ms Kiran Bedi told reporters that he will go in a procession from the jail to Mayapuri, a distance of about four-five km and then drive down to Rajghat. From there he will go to India Gate in central Delhi before moving to Ramlila Ground, a short distance from there.

She appealed to the supporters not to block roads and traffic.
