Dear Sarbajit,
I am not sure if your questions reached Anna ji, or if he would have time to answer your questions when he is sitting there to give his life to eradicate the corruption from our society. However, I would like to take a stab at your questions:
1. I cannot see any sticker very clearly showing POK and Aksai Chin as NOT part of India. Even if what you are saying is true, I am sure Anna ji did not select the picture for printing of stickers. In movement of such large scale, raising a question of this sort deviates the discussion to topics which are nowhere related to the movement and thus loses respect and support for both the movement and the topic.
2. Why should he feel embarrassed to share a platform with these religious leaders? Is corruption a problem to any specific religion? Is a Hindu is not as much affected by corruption as a Muslim or a Sikh or a Christian? Take a look at the list of supporters of Jan Lokpal Bill on http://indiaagainstcorruption.org/ . The original group of people who started the movement include Baba Ramdev, Sri Sri Ravishankar, Mahamood Madani, Archbishop Vincent M Concessao, Swami Agniwesh, Kiran Bedi, Arvind Kejriwal etc. I do not follow the same religion as some of these activists and leaders. I might not even agree with some of them on some topics. But that would not stop me from sharing a belief of corruption free India with these personalities. If they are ready to support me in getting stronger anti corruption laws, I am ready to support them for the same.
Thanx & Regards

Hi Diwan
When you meet Anna-:"ji" can you ask him 2 small questions from my side ?
1) Why does the vehicle (Maruti Gypsy) he was traveling in today with Kiran Bedi have a large sticker which shows POK and Aksai Chin as NOT part of India ? I'm attaching the photo for you to refresh Anna's memory if required
2) Doesn't Anna feel embarrassed to share a common platform with religious lightweights like Swami Agnivesh and Baba Ramdev ?
