Arvind Kejriwal to join Anna Hazare’s protest against Modi govt’s land bill

NEW DELHI: Delhi chief minister Arvind Kejriwal will join Anna Hazare's protest at Jantar Mantar against Land Acquisition Bill in Delhi on Monday, according to reports. Earlier Delhi deputy CM Manish Sisodia said, "We told Anna we will join his protest tomorrow, the Land Acquisition Bill is against farmers."

On Monday, veteran social activist Hazare launched his protest at Jantar Mantar against the ordinance on Land Acquisition Bill.

Terming the Narendra Modi-led government's Land Acquisition Bill as "ant-farmer" Anna Hazare vowed to fight it.

"BJP went for an ordinance on land acquisition which is not in favour of democracy," Anna said.

The social activist also hinted at a bigger agitation at the Ramlila ground if the Narendra Modi government did not heed to his demands on the issue.

Hazare said the two-day protest will be followed by a three to four month long "padyatra" (foot march) across the country to make people aware of the "anti-farmer" provisions made by the Centre in the ordinance.

"If the government doesn't take the ordinance back, then the people will also continue with their agitation. The activists will make aware the farmers (of the amendments). There is a chance that farmers from across the country will gather at the Ramlila Maidan in the next three-four months," he said.

77-year-old Hazare has been highly critical of the Modi government for making certain changes in the Land Acquisition Act through an ordinance.

On December 29 last year, the government had recommended promulgation of an ordinance making significant changes in the Land Acquisition Act including removal of consent clause for acquiring land for five areas of industrial corridors, PPP projects, rural infrastructure, affordable housing and defence.
