Jeetendra Pathak,the man who attacked Arvind Kejriwal with a shoe on Tuesday,has threatened to give a similar treatment to Anna Hazare if he comes to UP without clearing his stand on Prashant Bhushans Kashmir remarks,his opposition to the Congress,and Raj Thackerays campaign against north Indians.

Pathak,who was released Tuesday night after questioning,said Hazare must clarify whether his campaign was against corruption or the Congress. Noting that he ended his fast after the Prime Ministers assurance that the Lokpal Bill would be passed in the winter session,he said,If Hazare had no faith in the PMs letter,he should have continued his fast.

After accepting the PMs assurance,why did Team Anna campaign against the Congress and release Hazares taped message in Hisar? he asked. The campaign of Team Anna has deviated from corruption to the Congress party.

Besides clarifying his position,Anna Hazare should demand registration of a case of sedition against Prashant Bhusan for demanding a plebiscite in Kashmir and demand lodging of a criminal case against Raj Thackeray for repeatedly targetting north Indians,Pathak said.

Pathak said he had been a member of the Congress Sewa Dal from 2006 to 2009. Rahul Gandhi is my ideal but at present I am not associated with any political party, he said.
