More unknown small timers of team Anna are concerned whether Anna at his frail age can undertake such a dangerous expedition. However, Arvind Kejriwal is optimistic. " Fear not, there is evidence that Anna can do it. Have anyone of you even tried climbing our parliament? But Anna did, and he is above parliament. You can go take a look yourself." Santosh Hegde however believes Anna has taken his fight for Jan Lokpal to the other extreme. " It is unwarranted. This happens if you goof around too much. I opposed it. Life is more important. Somehow I convinced Anna not to jump from atop the Parliament. Now I think he wants to jump from Everest. This is dangerous. There is a high possibility that he may roll down the slopes, gather more snow and crash as one huge snow ball into Tibet. And after that the huge snowball may melt and cause a catastrophic flooding in Tibet. Has anyone thought of all this?" moaned the Lokayukta.
Anna's current antic of asking voters in the Hisar by-election not to vote for the Congress has raised some eyebrows. A shopkeeper, on the condition of anonymity said, " I dont know what to do, they asked me to no vote for Congress because they're not passing Lokpal bill. All these consumers are like this, they want bill for everything. After Anna, people are asking bill for even buying cigarettes. As a shopkeeper I can tell you that no one likes to give a bill. I support the Congress in this." And quite naturally every consumer aware of his rights is supporting Anna. A young upper middle class teen, on condition of no anonymity whatsoever, said " We want Lokpal bill. Not just one, but many". When asked the logic behind this, she said "See many shops like Leo Coffee, if we collect hundred bills, and give it back, they give us a free spoon. The Govt should introduce 100 into India's population number of Lokpal bills. Then every Indian citizen will get a free spoon. Nice na?".
The Congress government's desperately-made-unofficial spokesman Digvijay Singh, gave a statement while being bent down searching the floor for one of the screws that fell loose from him. "RSS is an active supporter of Hazare, RSS is illegally funding Anna's campaign. People should stand against RSS and Anna". However some people are excited about RSS links to Anna, as was this young whiz-kid, " RSS is funding Anna?? Thats kewl!! That's great dude, I mean I see alot of RSS feeds on the internet. But RSS funds people too? I didn't know that dude. Thanks..!!"
Things turned violent for Team Anna member Prashant Bushan who was beaten up by hooligans inside court premises. "It's a reprehensible act" said Jayalalitha, "as is the president's order declining mercy for Rajiv Gandhi's killers. People are angry about their death sentence, that is why you see people beating up lawyers. Anna should fast for a ban on death sentences for people who are supported by parties that cause a headache to my government. God, when Kasab is given a fair hearing, why not these three? Sure, this case is some 16 yrs old, but is Kasab's case going to be finished any sooner? Hah!!"
Jayalalitha however supports Anna's Everest expedition, " Anna's expedition can save the 3 accused and my government as a result. I plan of making a deal now. If Supreme Court doesn't cancel their sentences, I will encourage Anna to climb Everest. And he will, because everyone obeys me. Even Manmohan Singh, who is as absent from public as Azhagiri these days, is proactive in replying to my letters and calling me. So one call to Anna and he starts. Remember that. After all my party is All India "Anna" Dravida Munnetra Kazhagam. "
