New Delhi: Ramdev and few thousand of his supporters stay put at the football stadium in central Delhi throughout the night, refusing to vacate it and declaring that he will announce his future course of action on Tuesday.
Addressing his supporters early morning, the Yoga guru said history will be created on Tuesday and he will announce his next course of action before noon.
Ramdev went around the Ambedkar Stadium meeting his supporters who had gathered there since Monday evening.
Ramdev held an early morning strategy session with his close aides to fine tune the future course of his protest.
He had rejected an appeal by police to vacate the stadium flagging concerns ahead of Independence Day.
The Yoga guru on Moday adopted a vigorous anti-Congress stand in his protest against black money and was arrested during a march to Parliament but late in the night he refused to quit the stadium from where he and his few thousand supporters were released.
Giving a slogan 'Congress hatao, desh bachao' (Remove Congress, Save the Country), Ramdev ended his five-day protest with a call to his supporters to march to Parliament for a dharna demanding immediate steps to bring back black money stashed abroad.
His protest fast was marked by dilly-dallying over the last three days as he deferred announcing his strategy in the face of central government's total indifference to his agitation against corruption.
Addressing his supporters, Ramdev said he will call off his fast at 11 am but his movement for bringing back black money stashed abroad will continue.
"I had earlier said that I will end my fast in Jail. This stadium is a makeshift jail. I had said will call off my fast only after my supporters get food and water. Late in the night, they were provided with food and water. They have appealed to me to end the fast at 11:00 AM," Ramdev said.
He also said there will a big movement against Congress ahead of the next Lok Sabha elections.
