Anna's route to Ramlila, police issues traffic advisory

New Delhi:   At 11 am, Anna Hazare will emerge from Tihar Jail and make his way to Ramlila Maidan in Central Delhi to launch his 15-day protest against corruption.  Hundreds of supporters have gathered outside Tihar. Anna's close associate, Kiran Bedi, says he will move first to Mayapuri. 



He will then stop at Amar Jyoti at India Gate and visit Mahatma Gandhi's memorial at Rajghat before heading to Ramlila Maidan, where his base camp has been set up with hundreds of tents and toilets for the thousands that are likely to join him.

Ms Bedi requested his supporters to accompany him to Mayapuri.  From there, she said, Anna should travel alone to avoid causing traffic jams.

The Delhi Police have warned that traffic delays are likely near Ramlila Maidan.  Commuters are requested to avoid this area.
