He alongwith Arvind Kejariwal is the prime mover of Anna Hazare-led anti corruption movement in
India.
He was a member of the joint committee constituted in April 2011 by Govt of India to draft the Lokpal
Bill. He alongwith other members of Team Anna had clashes of views with Govt nominees ( ministers)
on the said bill. He even termed the Lokpal Bill introduced by Govt in the Parliament as the Promotion
of Corruption Bill as it contains harsh punishment for whistleblowers and gives more than fair
protection to the alleged corrupt like giving opportunity of being heard before investigation.
Indian parliament has issued him ( besides Arvind Kejariwal and Kiran Bedi ) a notice of breach of
privilege for his alleged remarks against the Parliament and parliamentarians which he denied but
maintained that it's a violation of principle of natural justice as nobody can be a judge in one's own
cause.
