Law minister Salman Khurshid fueled against members of team Anna when member Kiran Bedi attacked Prime Minister Manmohan Singh once again over coal block allocation.
The fight between the Government and the Civil Society members intensified when the Prime Minister rejected Anna Hazares request to investigate allegations of corruption against cabinet ministers. According to Khurshid the fight started off in the right direction but now has taken a wrong turn and is now used as a personal weapon.
“We all felt that they started off with a good idea, idea of containing corruption and questioning corruption was a good idea, but today they are doing the greatest disservice to this good idea by converting it into a personal campaign and a personal ambition. I will quite confidently say that the country will give them a suitable answer when the time comes.”
BJP also supported Team Anna in the war of words for probing into allegations of corruption against UPA government. Bedi tweeted, “PMO clears Prime Minister. Did Dhritarashtra in Mahabharata not support Kauravas even after they attempted to disrobe Draupadi? Indian genes / culture? Or ? ”
Explaining his reaction Khurshid said, “How come they never asked for a probe against themselves? We are at least subject to public scrutiny. We are willing for any public scrutiny. As you can see, the government has its own methods of keeping a check on what is happening in the country. But, I have not heard Team Anna ever having said we are willing for a probe.”
