- Team Anna declared on Sunday that they will hold "referendums" in constituencies of MPs who are part of the standing committee on the Jan Lokpal bill, asking people whether they should vote for their representatives who oppose the bill. Hazare threatened another stir if their demands are not met. "The referendum is meant to gauge people's views on those who oppose the Bill. In next six months, Anna and his team will tour the states where assembly elections are due, to create awareness about stand taken by political parties on the bill," said Arvind Kejriwal.
- Anna Hazare said he will tour the country and answer those opposed to the Jan Lokpal bill and not give up until the government passes the bill. "If required, I will again start an agitation again, if not from Jantar Mantar or Ramlila Maidan, then from some other place in Delhi," he said.
- Arvind Kejriwal, fighting off charges of corruption, said, "By October 15, an audit report of expenses incurred by India Against Corruption (IAC) during April 1 to September 30 will be put up on IAC website. All members of the core team will declare their assets. A three-member committee of retired HC/SC judges will be formed to look into complaints about alleged corruption in the expenses.
Editor's views: Isn't IAC becoming a blame game player by making tension by discussing politicians of a particular party in their every press conference .
However I liked the idea of 'tour of the country' but still 'Referendum in constituencies' asking people whether they should vote for their representatives who oppose the bill, smells political and more anti-government and less anti-graft. I think IAC is making all those their enemies who oppose their lokpal (including Aruna Roy) which is also not democratic. Its my view rest up to you{comment}
