No nepotism in Lokpal Bill panel: Hazare

Rejecting allegations of nepotism in selecting the five civil society members on the joint drafting panel of the Lokpal Bill, social activist Anna Hazare on Sunday said they needed experienced people and law experts to draft a stringent anti-corruption law.

"The committee is not permanent, it has been formed only for two months and we should not think that he or she is there or not there. We need experienced people because the law should be stringent, and law experts have been kept on it, and that was the whole reason I did not want to be on it," Anna Hazare told reporters here.

Yoga guru Baba Ramdev had Saturday alleged nepotism in the 10-member government-civil society joint drafting committee, without naming former law minister Shanti Bhushan and his advocate son Prashant Bhushan, who are part of the committee.

"I spoke to Kiran (Bedi) ji and will talk to Anna ji as people of the country are raising the issue that why nepotism has come in the five-member (civil society) committee which is representing the 121 crore population of the country," Baba Ramdev told a TV channel.
