New Delhi, Aug 27 (IANS): Activist Anna Hazare's fast for a strong anti-corruption bill is likely to end Saturday as the parliament will hold a special sitting to discuss the Lokpal issue later in the day, Team Anna member Kiran Bedi said.

"Today (Saturday) we are reaching the end either way... he (Anna) might end up his fast and we hope the parliament gives the resolution that the people of the country want," Bedi said.

"The country demands from the parliament. Will the parliament listen to the common man's demands?" Bedi asked the cheering crowd at Ramlila ground.

Hazare, 74, has been surviving only on water since Aug 16, when he started his fast and was arrested. He was sent to Tihar Jail and was released the same day but he refused to come out. He shifted to Ramlila ground here Aug 19 where he has been continuing his fast.

    We strongly wish that Shri Annaji end his fast soon. It seems the Govt including innocent looking PM is ineffective in his power to introduce Lokpal Bill. Mr PM even could not commit in writting to Shri Anna. In such a situation we are risking precious life of Shri Annaji.
    I also wonder why there is silence in case of the fact that Dr. Subramaniam Swamy's petition for the permission to prosecute Sonia Gandhi (an MP) for corruption charges, pending with the Prime Minister's Office, which has to be decided before the end of August this year!
