Rahul Gandhi's lack of support disappoints Team Anna

NEW DELHI: Team Anna member Kiran Bedi on Friday said they felt "let down" by Rahul Gandhi's lack of support for the anti-corruption movement as they thought that he would work with them to ensure that the Jan Lokpal Bill is passed in Parliament.
Bedi, one of the core members of Team Anna, said Rahul was the "biggest loss of faith in our trust".
"Rahul Gandhi was the biggest loss of faith in our trust.We thought he is a young face, who would work with us for this country's future and ensure that the Jan Lokpal Bill gets passed," she said at a panel discussion organized by the Observer Research Foundation. Rahul's lack of support for their movement surprised the civil society members, Bedi said.
The Congress general secretary had criticized Hazare's fast and said the need of the hour was not just a strong Lokpal but make it a constitutional body like the Election Commission.
Bedi reiterated their demand for a strong judicial accountability bill, saying the group had dropped their demand for bringing judiciary under Lokpal. "The draft version of the judicial accountability bill does not cover judicial corruption. We had agreed to drop the demand to bring judiciary under the ambit of the Lokpal because the government had promised to include this in the judicial accountability bill,” she said
"Now, we will demand that the judiciary be brought under Lokpal," the former IPS officer added.
