Along with the Jan Lokpal Bill, the parliamentary standing committee has received two other drafts.

Team Anna would make a formal presentation of its draft of the Jan Lokpal Bill before the standing committee of Parliament for two days, starting on November 3.

DNA was informed about this by Team Anna member, Arvind Kejriwal, on Monday. “The standing committee has advanced the date for our presentation from November 5,” he said, adding that the panel has allowed two days to Team Anna to present their point of view.

Along with the Jan Lokpal Bill, the parliamentary standing committee has received two other drafts. It received 6,000 suggestions regarding the Lokpal Bill.

Apart from Kejriwal, core team members of Team Anna, Prashant and Shanti Bhushan and top cop, Kiran Bedi, would attend the
presentation before the standing committee.

Kejriwal denied that there were divisions within the team in view of the recent attack on Prashant Bhushan and accusations of defalcation of funds against Bedi.
