There were no signs of a let up between Anna Hazare and the government on Wednesday afternoon with the social activist reiterating that he would not come out of his self-imposed stay in Tihar Jail unless allowed to fast without conditions.
After a meeting with Hazare inside jail, close associate Prashant Bhushan said the government and the police were discussing with them options of a fast venue -- JP Park or Ramlila Maidan -- where he could launch his fight for a strong Lokpal Bill.
Bhushan said if conditions were imposed, Hazare would continue his fast inside the jail.
Even if it was Ramlila Maidan, their fast would not bow to any conditions set by the government, Hazare's other aide Manoj Sisodia said.
The government is not ready to allow a fast for more than five days while Team Anna's relentless demand is permission for a month.
