It was stated by the Congress Party that, the next General Elections must be fought by Anna Hazare and his team and then get their version of Lokpal Bill passed in the Parliament. Rashid Alvi, the Congress leader, asserted that nothing would happen by sitting on fast at Jantar Mantar and Anna Hazare And Anna Hazare's team should find the constitutional ways inorder to get their demands accepted. He added that if the legislation (Lokpal Bill) s not according to their choice, then instead of taking the unconstitutional ways, they should make their candidate to fight the next General Elections, come to Parliament and get their Legislation. Thus, in his opinion, such valid and appropriate modes must be taken up by Anna Hazare and his team. Therefore according to the Congress party that must be the way that must be adopted by them, inorder to get their description of the Lokpal Bill passed in the Parliament. The statements come ahead of Team Anna's scheduled meeting with the members of the Parliamentary standing committee which is working on the anti-graft bill. It has been already announced by Anna Hazare that from 16th of August, he would sit on a fast to protest against the Lokpal Bill of the Government. He staged a fast at Jantar Mantar in Delhi, earlier, from 5th of April to 9th of April, after which the Government agreed to include the civil society members in the drafting of the bill. However, in the joint drafting committee, there were differences and the final draft of the bill tabled in the Parliament by the Government was criticized by the civil society as being ineffective.
