Delhi Chief Minister Arvind Kejriwal will join his former mentor Anna Hazare in a protest here on Tuesday against the controversial land acquisition Bill.

The move is expected to give a fillip to the two-day protest organised by Mr. Hazare at Jantar Mantar from Monday. On Tuesday, Mr. Hazare’s group will be joined by Left farmers’ unions and an Ekta Parishad contingent of 5,000 farmers marching to Delhi from Palwal in Haryana. “The number of people expected is close to 20,000,” a National Alliance of People’s Movements member said.
