Will rejoin Team Anna only after discussions: PV Rajgopal

MATHURA: Jan Satyagraha leader and former Team Anna member P V Rajgopal today said he will look into the possibilities of joining Anna Hazare's new team only after having a one-to-one discussion with the Gandhian over his future agenda.

Rajgopal, who parted ways with Hazare along with 'Waterman' Rajendra Singh after Team Anna's decision to campaign during Hisar by-polls, said he has received an invitation for joining Hazare's new team but will take a decision only after thoroughly going through its agenda.

Rajgopal asserted that Hazare should take his movement to the people rather than directly confronting with the government, to avoid it become a "self-centred" movement.

He claimed that no political party was serious in tackling with the issue of corruption.

Rajgopal, who had recently led a march seeking land reforms, said anti-corruption crusades fail to get people from all sections of the society, and remain limited to a middle-class movements.

"Sections of people like females, Dalits, tribals and poor never manage to become part of anti-corruption movements," Rajgopal said.
