Did Anna Hazare abruptly announce the ending of the fast, taking his associates by surprise?
The dramatic announcement by Hazare came at 4 pm on Thursday when the activist said he and his aides will end the fast on Friday. It did not come at the end of his nearly 30 minute speech which started around 3 pm but later after his close aides Arvind Kejriwal, Kiran Bedi and Kumar Vishwas had spoken.
His first speech did not mention about ending the fast while Kejriwal talked about waiting for next two days to take a decision on the political alternative after going through the suggestions from public.
After the speeches of Kejriwal and Bedi, he again picked up the microphone to add some other points like Lokayukta bill in states and not just changing the system at Centre but at
the states also.
