Anna team meets BJP

-The Telegraph
 
Team Anna members today lobbied BJP leaders over their Jan Lokpal Bill but failed to get a commitment.

Sushma Swaraj and Arun Jaitley told the team that their party wasn’t opposed to the government introducing separate bills to tackle corruption in the lower bureaucracy and judiciary. The team wants these brought under the ombudsman.

Hazare’s associates were also told that the BJP favoured a strong Lokpal but not a draconian one, sources said.

The Prime Minister’s office could be included in the ambit but with caveats related to national security and foreign policy, the sources quoted the leaders as saying.

Arvind Kejriwal, Prashant Bhushan and Kiran Bedi were among those who met the leaders at the BJP’s office in Parliament.

The Centre plans to bring its Lokpal bill and other anti-graft legislation in the winter session.
