Team Anna reaching out to Parliamentary Comittee on Lokpal Bill

Team Anna is meeting out to the members of Parliamentary Standing Committee on Lokpal Bill so as to ensure that their concerns are addressed in the recommendations they will be sending.
Activist Arvind Kejriwal has also held meetings with LJP Chief Ram Vilas Paswan, Shailendra Kumar and S Semmalai among others in the past few days.
Sources admit that Kejriwal has been urging the members for including their demand of putting CBI's anti-corruption wing as well as all government employees under the ambit of Lokpal.
Kejriwal added that, without CBI, Lokpal would be a post office. It will be forwarding the complaints to the CBI which shall hold investigations and forward its report to the court.
Paswan, who had a meeting with the activist Kejriwal earlier in the day, told the reporters that he has told the Team Anna that he will not support any move to bring the Prime Minister under the ambit of Lokpal Bill.
He said that the Prime Minister cannot be exposed to competitive politics. We have a hostile neighbourhood and therefore cannot put the Prime Minister under scanner always.
