Two resignations and one more in the offing? The core group behind India Against Corruption (IAC) led by Anna Hazare is likely to be whittled down further with Delhi archbishop Vincent M Concessao distancing himself from the movement, sources said on Wednesday.

On Tuesday, Magsaysay award winner Rajendra Singh and Gandhian activist P V Rajagopal quit the original 26-member panel citing the political activism of Arvind Kejriwal and other leaders of India Against Corruption after the campaign against Congress in the Hisar bypoll. Others might follow soon, it is learnt.

The archbishop, who heads the Catholic diocese in New Delhi, had joined the IAC to oppose corruption, a leader in the community said on the condition of anonymity. "As he is the leader of a community that has its members in various parties, he may not join the propaganda for or against any political party."

The archbishop is amongst 24 core committee members left in the IAC. He is also one of the 20 founding leaders of the IAC.

Other leaders such as Maulana Shamoom Qasmi, who is both a founding leader and a core committee member, also have reservations about the way the movement is going. Muslim religious leaders Mahmood Madani, Syed Rizvi and Syed Shah Fazlur Rahman Waizi also might part ways, sources said. "Some of them may resign, some of them may distance themselves," a source said.
