India's social activist, Anna Hazare would arrive in New Delhi on Wednesday to discuss with the core team members about the formulation of the strategy to revive the anti-graft movement.

Hazare told the reporters in his village Ralegan Siddhi in Maharashtra that there is a need to reignite the fire among the people so that they can root out corruption.

"Today, there is a meeting in Delhi. The main motive behind this is to decide how the movement would take place in the near future. We have to formulate a strategy for the movement. The people of the country think that the movement has died out. We have to ignite the movement till the corruption is totally rooted out from this country," said India's anti-graft activist, Anna Hazare.

Team Anna is now taking a pause for reflection, and the legislation creating such an ombudsman (the Lokpal) has yet to be instituted. One early conclusion is that it will have to find other tactics apart from hunger strikes. Over the past year, India has been transfixed by a campaign led by Anna Hazare to force the government to create an ombudsman, which would prosecute corrupt politicians and bureaucrats. Hazare's initial hunger strikes brought millions of sympathisers out on the streets and forced the government into a series of humiliating U-turns.

But "Team Anna" had lost some steam. When Hazare launched his third hunger strike just before the New Year, hardly anybody turned up -- and he had to call it off prematurely because he was ill.

If Team Anna gets its mojo back, its priority will be to fight for a strong ombudsman. But, after that, it could do a lot worse than turn its attention to the transparency side of the anti-corruption agenda
