Hegde Says, Anna's Stand Is Now Undemocratic

Bangalore, Aug 26: Member of the joint drafting committee on Lokpal bill, N Santosh Hegde, today strongly disapproved of Anna Hazare’s insistence on “having his way” in Parliament and sought to make out a case for ending his fast even while continuing the anti-corruption fight.

Hegde, a former Supreme Court judge who has emerged as the face of anti-corruption crusade in Karnataka, said the demand that “my dictum should be accepted by Parliament” is, in fact, demeaning to the Lok Sabha.

“I feel I am not in Team Anna any more by the way things are going. These (telling Parliament what to do) are not democratic things,” Hegde, who till recently served as Karnataka Lokayukta, told PTI.
