Anna should step in to provide direction: Kiran Bedi

PTI Updated - March 12, 2018 at 02:39 PM.

In a veiled attack on Arvind Kejriwal, activist Kiran Bedi today said erstwhile Team Anna has become “suspect” in its programme after a few chose the political route and suggested that Anna Hazare step in to provide direction.

Bedi also appeared to take a dig on the series of street agitations by India Against Corruption led by Kejriwal when she asked whether “are we a movement for a cause, which was Jan Lokpal Bill, Right to Reject, etc or a mass of agitators?”

Asked whether the dissolving of Team Anna has made corrupt more confident now, Bedi said the pressure “may have lessened.”

Her remarks came on Twitter against the backdrop of questions being raised on her stand to focus on Congress in the anti-corruption fight and not target BJP.

“Ever since few have opted for political route the movement has become suspect in its programmes. Anna needs to step in to direct,” Bedi said.
