Team Anna members will start an indefinite fast today to protest against the government. Anna Hazare will also go on a hunger strike from July 29, joining fellow team members like Arvind Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia and Gopal Rai.

"The aim is to campaign for a Lokpal Bill... the government is only giving us assurances, but takes no action," Hazare said, referring to the anti-graft legislation that has been his movement's raison d'etre.

The activists' camp will be set up at Delhi's Jantar Mantar. On Wednesday morning, Hazare will visit Mahatma Gandhi's memorial at Rajghat before he heads to the sit-in protest.
