"I have no links with the RSS. I don't care what everybody is saying as people know what Anna is. I don't need RSS," Hazare told reporters in his village, 250 km from Mumbai.

The anti-corruption crusader said he is being targeted by different people.

RSS chief Vishnu Bhagwat Wednesday said they supported the anti-corruption movement launched by Team Anna.

"We support Anna. Many of our workers have joined his movement. We haven't asked them to support neither have we stopped them," Bhagwat said.

Earlier, Congress general secretary Digvijay Singh alleged that Team Anna has links with Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP)-RSS.
