India Against Corruption activist Anna Hazare's core group will meet today (29 October 2011) to debate on how to strategise its future cource and also whether the team should continue in its present form. Though today's meet is considered crucial in many ways, it is taking place without the presence of Anna Hazare. It still remains a big question - will Team Anna be revamped after allegations of financial misconduct against some of its key members. Incidentally, Anna has also hinted at an expansion of his Core Committee.

Anna is still continuing with his silence (Moun-vrat), but Raju Parulkar, who helps him blog, said that Anna Hazare wants the core group expanded. Anna wants the core group to be more representative, but has put a condition that the members must not have perceived self interests. Moreover, another core committee member Dr. Kumar Vishwas wrote a letter to Anna stating that the repeated attacks on each of the members is going on unabated and is distracting attention of the Team. Dr. Kumar even argued in his letter that the committee be disbanded.

Apart from outside attacks, there seem to be serious differences between the members. While Anna himself have repeatedly disagreed with Prashant Bhushan's views on Kashmir, allegations against Kiran Bedi have also proven to be an embarrassment for the team. Therefore, today's meeting also raises the question whether genuine differences are proving irreconcilable making revamping of the Team inevitable.
