"Anna has been interacting with everyone in sign language and writing messages on a black paper. Using this sign language Anna has hinted that his vrat will be over soon," said Sanjay Pathare, a schoolteacher of the village, and a close aide to Anna.
He said that Anna would be speaking in the Jan Lokpal Bill standing committee meeting in Delhi after which his team would finalise his nationwide tour in a core committee meeting.
Jaisingh Mapari, sarpanch of Ralegansiddhi, said, "Due to his health problems Anna has kept his silence for long but now he appears to be in a better condition. We are sure he will give a strong speech in Delhi."
