Hazare's move to disband Team Anna irks aides

August 06, 2012 19:05

Not everyone in Team Anna seems to have appreciated activist Anna Hazare's move to disband the anti-corruption group.

Team Anna member N Santosh Hegde said, "I feel sorry (about the decision to disband the team) for the reason that the movement started by Anna for a strong Lokpal was need of the hour...It (the movement spearheaded by Team Anna) had progressed sufficiently and controversy or difference of opinion in regard to whether Team Anna should contest elections or not is unfortunate and which must have led to Anna disbanding the team."

Kiran Bedi also expressed her displeasure over the blog, posting a tweet: "Read Anna's blog. Do not know what all it means? For we all had very useful preparatory meeting with Annaji wherein he gave useful guidance".

This came a day after some other Team Anna members, including Akhil Gogoi, distanced themselves from the decision to go political.
