Former Deputy Commissioner of the BMC GR Khairnar has slammed Anna Hazare and his team. Khairnar said Hazare does not deserve the attention he is getting for spearheading the movement against graft.  

"Our people get swayed in emotions, propaganda and media have made this nincompoop (Anna Hazare) from Maharashtra taken to New Delhi and unnecessarily praising him for his opinion.

"So much that today they have become arrogant and are in a position to threaten who believe that only there are four-five people are intelligent; which is wrong," said Khairnar.  

He  urged the people not to blindly follow Hazare and his team but continue to garner support for the anti-corruption Lokpal Bill.  

"Anna's team of rascals is instigating emotions. It is important for the people to know that the Lokpal (Ombudsman) Bill is good for the country and should be brought soon. If there are any drawbacks they can be reworked later on. So people should not fall into their trap and don''t support Anna but only focus on getting the Bill passed," added Khairnar. 

Team Anna has rejected the government''s version of the Lokpal Bill in Parliament, and termed it to be weak. They have been pressurising the government to accept their demands including bringing the CBI under the ambit of the anti-corruption ombudsman.
