As his fast entered the seventh day, Anna Hazare today did not make his customary morning address as he came to the dais.
Hazare had been making an address in the morning for the past three days setting the agenda of his protest, but today he did not make any statements.
He was lying on a mattress on the dais. Usually, he start with slogans of 'Bharat Mata ki Jai' and 'Vande Matram'.
"I expected that he will speak and give some direction about the protest," said Krishna Sharma, a Hazare supporter who was at Ramlila Maidan.
Hazare has lost five kgs in the past seven days of his hunger strike with doctors today saying he is fine.
"His weight has come down to 67 from 72 kg. His blood pressure is 130/80 and pulse rate 90," close associate Manish Sisodia said, adding, "Doctors say his health is okay but we are worried."
Another associate Arvind Kejriwal said the ketone level in Hazare's blood and urine has risen slightly. Ketones are particles created by the body during starvation, and are meant to provide an alternate source of fuel from fatty acids.
Activist Kiran Bedi said Anna has not eaten for seven days but no one in the government seems concerned.
Govt says Anna Hazare's campaign is meddling with our parliamentary system. Do you agree? Leave your comments
