New Delhi, June 13, (PTI) / Deccan Herald:

The Anna Hazare camp today wrote to Prime Minister Manmohan Singh to push for inclusion of his post in the ambit of Lokpal, arguing that a step otherwise would be ''retrograde''.

They also took on Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee for accusing the civil society of trying to undermine democracy and said his statement betrays a "distorted understanding of democracy and arrogance of power". Two days ahead of the next meeting of the joint drafting committee on Lokpal Bill, its five activist members, including Hazare, sent a letter to Singh alleging that the government seems to be shrinking the scope of the anti-corruption regime. With the Congress Smear Campaign in full force, 'Team Anna' should learn some 'Counter-Campaign Tactics' to them where it hurts most;  they should quote Digvijay's stand on bringing PM, etc. under Lokpal: http://prmadhura3.blogspot.com/2011/06/digvijay-uvacha-pm-higher-judiciary-too.html
