Parliament censures defiant Team Anna

By The Assam Tribune

NEW DELHI, March 27 � Team Anna today remained defiant despite a censure from Parliament over the language used in attacking lawmakers, saying questions still remained on issues raised by them and it reaffirms the public perception about lawmakers� non-seriousness to root out corruption, reports PTI.

Soon after Parliament passed the resolution, Team Anna member Arvind Kejriwal said there were questions in people�s minds and none has been addressed yet.

�In future, will bills be torn apart again? In future, will mikes and chairs be thrown around? Horse trading of MPs continue. These are the questions which remain,� Kejriwal said.

MPs in Lok Sabha had hit out at Team Anna yesterday for using derogatory language against Parliamentarians and political parties during Anna Hazare�s one-day fast at Jantar Mantar on Sunday.

In her reaction, another key member Kiran Bedi said it was an opportunity for a debate in Parliament on trying to understand the real reason for public outcry which is for clean politics.

�Parliament could have resolved not to give tickets to persons who have been judicially charged of serious heinous crimes. And also have special courts to expedite trials of such persons who want to represent the people in the temples of democracy.
