New Delhi : Team Anna members expressed hope Sunday that the Lokpal bill would soon become a reality, noting that it would be difficult for political parties to go back on their positions in parliament on the issue.
“Given the sense of the parliament Saturday, approving the three key demands of Anna Hazare, it would be difficult for thje political parties to resign from their position,” Prashant Bhushan, a member of Team Anna, said.
“The matter is under public scrutiny.”
Another Team Anna member, former police officer Kiran Bedi said: “Anna has a written commitment from Prime Minister Manmohan Singh.”
On people pouring out in the streets to support Anna, Bhushan said that they are celebrating the feeling that if people come together, they can change things.
Anna’s three key demands were a citizen’s charter, bringing lower bureaucracy under Lokpal and setting up Lok Ayuktas in states.
