NEW DELHI: Scores of women working in the capital's red light area, G B Road, have extended support to Anna Hazare's fast demanding Jan Lokpal Bill, an NGO working for their welfare said today.

According to Bhartiya Patita Uddhar Sabha, sex workers have met Hazare's team at Ramlila Gaidan and vowed cooperation till all the demands raised by 73-year-old Gandhian are met.

On August 20, a number of sex workers visited Ramlila Maidan and met the team of Anna Hazare and indicated their full support," said Khairati Lal Bhola, President of the NGO.
