Veteran activist Anna Hazare's fast-unto-death here gathered steam on its second day on Wednesday as he pressed for a stronger anti-graft Lok Pal Bill through greater involvement of civil society - a protest he has dubbed as the second Satyagraha.
"This is democracy and we want people's participation in drafting the Lok Pal bill," Hazare told reporters at Jantar Mantar in New Delhi where he has parked himself along with around 5,000 supporters.

"We want representation from civil society in drafting the Lok Pal Bill, 50 per cent from civil society and 50 per cent from the government," he said. The bill aims to fight corruption in public life.
According to India Against Corruption, the banner under which the activists have united to fight corruption, the government has not approached the fasting activist so far. Hazare, who has sat on the fast Tuesday, however said that government will have to bow to the wish of the people.
