Hundreds of supporters today gathered outside Tihar prison eagerly waiting for the moment when anti-corruption campaigner Anna Hazare will come out of the jail after spending almost three days there.
People are arriving in large numbers since early morning to participate in Hazare's proposed yatra to Ramlila Ground, which will be the site of his ongoing indefinte fast for a strong Lokpal.
Supporters expressed happiness over the 73-year-old Gandhian's decision to come out from the prison complex following rounds of negotiations with the police and authorities to decide on agitation venue to undertake hunger strike.
"I have come here late last night to participate in this mass movement. It is our victory and we will remove corruption from the country with Annaji's help," said Ashok Marwah, a Dwarka resident who was among thousands others anxiously waiting for the Hazare's release.
