India’s BJP General Secretary, Ananth Kumar (pictured here), argued against the idea that the BJP is simply following the lead of anti-corruption protetors such as Anna Hazare and the popular yogi Baba Ramdev, saying that the BJP had brought up these issues in the run-up to the 2009 Lok Sabha elections.
Mr. Kumar announced that the BJP stood behind Yogi Baba Ramdev in his fight against corruption, but would not participate in his call to amass 11,000 supporters to his cause.
