Uma on fast to protest against corruption

Ms. Bharti said she was following Mahatma Gandhi’s ideals in deciding to sit on fast. “Mr. Advani owes an explanation to the people and would have to reveal how crores of rupees were raised for the lavish function organised in the State capital on Monday for releasing his book,” she asked.Ms. Bharti levelled charges of corruption against the State Chief Minister, his spouse, and members of his Cabinet. She said Mr. Advani’s function was a mockery of those suffering from poverty and soaring prices.
