Anna says he is fine, thanks media for support

New Delhi, Aug 25: On the 10th day of his fast Thursday, civil society activist Anna Hazare said that he is doing fine and thanked the media people for supporting his movement against corruption.

"I am doing fine and there is nothing to worry about. I have lost 6.5 kg in the last 10 days but there is no difficulty," Hazare told the crowd at the Ramlila Maidan.

He looked weak but there was no flagging of his spirit as he shouted "Vande Mataram" and "Bharat Mata Ki Jai".

"I want to thank the media for their support. I am confident that the Jan Lokpal Bill will be passed and I won't die before it is passed," he said as the crowd cheered.

The 74-year-old Hazare also thanked the crowd, saying he drives the energy from the people supporting him. (IANS)
