Tharoor supports Hazare, stresses on dialogue

"Sorry, have been focused on Kerala campaign. Huge respect for Anna Hazare. Unconditionally support consensual national action against corruption," Tharoor wrote on microblogging website Twitter.

However, Tharoor added that discussions on the Lokpal Bill were inevitable and not all points could be supported. "But that doesn't mean every point in Anna's list can be supported without discussion. Consultations on Lokpal bill are indispensable," he added.

Anna Hazare is observing a fast-unto-death at Jantar Mantar here, demanding a more stringent anti-corruption law.
