Hazare, who has expressed reservations about politics changing the course of country's future, will reach the capital tomorrow evening and is expected to hold talks on Wednesday.

According to IAC, 5,61,701 out of 7,37,041 people or 76 per cent of those surveyed were in favour of forming the party. They naysayers were 1,75,340, which was 24 per cent.

The survey was conducted through SMS, emails and on-the- spot surveys.

Hazare had yesterday given yet another sign of distancing himself from Kejriwal-led group's political foray, saying politics will not deliver a better future for people and asked those planning to join his anti-corruption movement to contact him in Ralegan Siddhi.

Till now, the Hazare-led movement was headquartered in Delhi and run under the banner of India Against Corruption, a non-registered body perceived to be controlled by Kejriwal.

This is the second time in the past one week that Hazare has commented on the issue anti-corruption movement taking a political turn, the first being a video shot by those opposed to the political course taken by a section of the erstwhile Team Anna and the latest his blog post.
