New Delhi: With the talks on Lokpal Bill deadlocked, Anna Hazare today alleged that government was "playing tricks" and threatened to resort to agitation again if a strong anti-corruption bill was not passed.
Hazare also questioned the rationale behind sending two versions of Lokpal Bill to the Cabinet for consideration.
"If they bring a weak bill, certainly will have to go back to agitation. It appears that the government is going back on its promises. We may have to revive our Jantar Mantar agitation which was stopped for sometime," he said.
A day after the sixth meeting of the joint drafting committee on Lokpal Bill, he said he did not understand the need for setting up a joint committee to draft the bill if it was to send two drafts to the Cabinet for consideration.
"They (government) have wasted our time.
