Kiran Bedi says more can be targeted if Lokpal Bill is not passed

NEW DELHI: Team Anna member Kiran Bedi today warned politicians that they may be targeted like Sharad Pawar if Lokpal Bill is not passed in the ongoing Winter Session of Parliament.

"Pray proper Lokpal Bill gets passed in winter session or else pent up anger may come on streets. Politicians may get targeted," Bedi, who was in the eye of a storm for mocking politicians during Anna Hazare's Ramlila Maidan agitation, tweeted.

Condemning the attack, she said, one needs to analyse why is this happening and what must be done to contain this.

"Assault on public functionaries calls for serious reflection at all levels of society including media forums," Bedi said.

At a public function here, Pawar was slapped by a youth who claimed he was angry with corruption and price rise.

Pawar was slapped by Harvinder Singh, a transporter in his thirties who had assaulted former Telecom Minister Sukhram outside Rohini Court on Saturday after he was sentenced in a corruption case.
