Ex- Army Chief V K Singh calls Anna Ramdev Fast as Timely and Valid

Amid speculation of his joining Team Anna, Ex- Army Chief Gen. V K Singh has supported the fight of  Team Anna and Baba Ramdev.  He was at Vrindavan to offer prayers  at the famous Banke Bihari temple.

When asked about the Anti-graft agitation, he called it  “timely and valid”. He said that corruption was a major issue in the country and it was upto the government to devise ways to tackle it.

He however declined to join Politics.  Gen. Singh said that while there were many issues facing the nation, he did not have any “immediate plan” to join politics.

Gen. Singh refused to talk about his 42-year tenure with the Indian Army – beyond saying that he had come to thank God that it had passed off peacefully – citing confidentiality on many issues. He also hoped that the government would do all it can to maintain the honour of the force.

At the end all was good and I wanted to thank God for his blessings” , he added.
