The Government today justified Delhi Police rejecting permission for Anna Hazare's indefinite fast in New Delhi in absence of an undertaking by his team. Information and Broadcasting Minister Ambika Soni told reporters in New Delhi that law of the land is equal for all and even political parties have to take permission for holding agitations. Replying to questions on Anna team's contention that its right to protest cannot be taken away, Ms.Soni said everybody has got a right to protest but permission has to be sought keeping in mind law and order and other factors. She dismissed allegation that the police set the conditions on them at the behest of politicians saying any person making such allegation is deliberately trying to mislead. The police move to reject the application came soon after the Hazare team submitted an undertaking leaving six out of the 22 conditions laid out by Delhi Police for granting permission for the fast at the Jai Prakash Narain Park near Ferozeshah Kotla stadium in New Delhi.
