Anna Hazare on Saturday wrote a fresh letter to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh, saying doubts have arisen over whether the Lokpal Bill will be passed by December 23, when Parliament's current session gets over. The activist also threatened to go ahead with his proposed fast and jail bharo agitation.
In a four-page letter, he alleged that the government's behaviour was "not at all right" and asked why Dr Singh changed his stand on the Citizens' Charter, despite giving a written assurance that it will be part of the Lokpal bill.
