New Delhi, Aug 28: Swami Agnivesh, regarded as one of the key members of Team Anna is in the centre of controversy now for his alleged video which has sparked off a row across the web community.

The video clip shows Swami Agnivesh betraying Team Anna, and telling union minister Kapil Sibal that Team Anna is a 'mad and misguided elephant'. He was allegedly favouring the government in the teleconference instead of defending Team Anna.

"Despite the government giving so many offers, why is he still not accepting it? The team is crossing the limits and trying to sit on the government's head, which is not tolerable," he said to Kapil Sibal, which was caught on camera.

But Swami Agnivesh has come out strongly against the allegation, and has said that the webclip is totally doctored. "I never had any such teleconference with Kapil Sibal. You can check my mobile number or even Kapil Sibal's number to confirm whether we really had any such phone calls. This is an effort to malign me, nothing else," he lashed.

"I never call anyone 'Maharaj', so how can I address Kapil as Kapil Maharaj, as shown in the video clip?" he questions.

In the clip, Agnivesh is allegedly heard expressing disappointment that he was not selected as a negotiator. But Agnivesh said, "I was just a member of Team Anna, and never wanted to be a negotiator."

    This is modesty. Kapil Sibbal is calling, and What swami can do without joining words with him.

    He has to assert what sibbal is saying.

    Lets keep ourself in his place. If you get a call from CM unexpectedly what you would do. You talk same thing what he wants to hear right?.

    I dont see anything wrong in his talk.

    I dont understand why swamiji is giving these information on the live camera, it is a matter to think otherwise...Yes he was against Anna's continued fast on last days, but he is not so stupid to talk all this in front of live camera.. very strange.

    Nagesh mamu,

    what about the Lalu Prasad Yadav, who abused Our Anna Hazzare like a cheap. ( This is public forum, don't link BJP and Hinduism ). Neharu, Indira, Rajeev and Sonia are Hindus. Is BJP done anything more than dividing vote bank based on cast.

    Swami Agnivesh talks on TV very well and is always reasonable with his position. I can not imagine he made a radical statement like that though he did not agree with the ultimatum provided by Anna's Team.

    Oh by the way,if Congress is led by somebody hailing from Italy,there is nothing wrong with that.After all,the Aryans came from today's Tajikistan and BJP is led by Brahmins who are originally Aryans and therefore originally Tajiks.

    He is an agent to give information about Annaji and the movement. It is govt strategy to sabotage movement.Like KGB's these people are planted in important positions. Aruna and Agnivesh do little social work to gain peoples confidence and thereby hide their real identity. They do not know who is Anna. Anna is peoples voice which can never be suppressed.

    Some self centered people always want to hog the limelight-Agnivesh is one of them.
    Some people criticize Anna & his team without knowing whether constitution or parliament is supreme in democracy.
    When politicians usurp our rights & power in the name of parliament being supreme all these years- Anna made them eat humble pie.
    The commentators doesn't know the pain & suffering of people who endure at the mercy of their servants bossing them & sucking their blood daily.
    UPCL was opposed by people but successive govts., went ahead- now we can suffer permanently with pollution harming our health & environment.
    In our state we can see KIDB acquiring our lands & livelyhood for a pittance & later politicians acquring those land against the law & making hefty profits reselling it to builders & industiralists.
    Have these people, any say in selling their own land? Then what is DEMOCRACY?
    Govts. are collecting Toll on Roads even after getting the cost within a few years, while providing infrastructure is govts. duty as it collects Road Tax from every buyer of vehicle in advance! When this Bill was passed in Parliament- did any common man was informed to voice their opinion?
    This is what Anna envisages in future. Democracy doesn't mean authoritarian rule by few elected legislators on subjects like Kings or Military Rule.
    Anna has given power back to people to decide his future not once in 5 years but always.
    This is the first step- wait & see what benefits you in coming years.

    The video put up here is incomplete and There is nothing wrong from swami's side, Swami was concerned about Anna Hazare's health, and also he believes that the Parliament is supreme. As a part of the mediation this talk must have been had between the minister and the Swami. why is furore about this .Swamy should have accepted what is in the video instead of saying the video is doctored.. Being a Swami he shouldn't have lied before the public/media.

Swamiji is also a human being, and it is not a mistake, it is an error. Thank you Daiji for this video footage and keeping us alert on each and every subject.

    GUROO ,Bangalore,U know Anna's mission has mass appeal but the problem is it was hijacked by UR ABVP,BJP and Sanghparivars.Why U know?Because Eddy and dozens of his ministers looted India in three years what Congressmen who had made corruption for sixty long years !!!!! To divert the attention of great goalmaal, All Sanghparivar outfits joined together wearing Gandhi suits and topi in guise....... !!!!! What a shame Guru!!!!In front of money no patriotism and no nationalism!!!By the by if Anna not insist on strong Janlokpal Bill BJP also tried to double speak and double std.Thats why Yashwant and Shtru Sinha rebelled aaginst party leadership.

    As far as my participation in the process of Janlokpal Bill, @ least indirectly it is my birth right and freedom press, as a citizen of India.However, I did not in want of your free advise and keep it yourselves and my request for U is just glance @ Indian history before commenting issue less and unnecessary.......

    This is the advantage of modern technology. In olden times photographic negatives were deemed solid evidence. Now it’s very common for celebrities/actors to claim that the video clips were doctored or morphed and if one is lucky, will get the benefit of doubt.

    "Web Clips Doctored, Part of Smear Campaign' - Agnivesh" GUYS THIS IS ONLY A BEGINING. WHEN DAYS PASSES THERE ARE MANY MORE TO BE DISCLOSED FROM TEAM-ANNA'S DOUBLE GAME. AS I MENTIONED BEFORE, CIVIL PEOPLE OF THIS COUNTRY ARE NOT ALLOWED TO DRAFT ANY CALUSE-POLICY-DRAFT. IT IS AGAINST THE CONSTITUTION OF OUR COUNTRY. ELECTED RAJYA SABHA AND LOKSABHA MEMBERS, CONSTITUTIONAL EXPERTS CAN MAKE ONLY MAKE POLICIIES. TO MAKE ANY CONSTITUIONAL CHANGES THERE HAS TO BE DISCUSSION-DEBATE IN PARLIAMENT BETWEEN GOVT-OPPOSITON ONLY. TEAM-ANNA CAN'T MAKE ANY DECISIONS AT PRESENT. GOVT. ONLY PASS THE RESOLUTION, BUT THERE ARE SO MANY PROCESS & PROCEEDURES TO MAKE IT PASSED, BUT INDIRECTLY THIS IS ONLY A EYE-WASH. ANYWAY WE ARE LUCKY IT GOT PASSED, BUT CHANCES ARE ONLY 0.01% AGAINST 99.99%

    Anna Hazare has been hijacked by Kiran Bedi and Arvind Kejriwal. Just see how they are deliberately misleading people into believing that Government has accepted Anna's demands. In reality, Government has committed nothing, has not given a time frame and there is absolutely no guarantee that Anna's three core demands would at all be incorporated in the final bill. But Bedi and Kejriwal would like us to believe that they have won a great victory. Indians should be wary of such self serving individuals who are piggybacking on the Anna myth supported by hyper-ventilating electronic media and Gandhi topi clad trendy tee flaunting youth from affluent households in and around Delhi. It seems the Anna circus has given a chance to any and everybody to spout few incoherent and completely nonsensical 'shoulds' and 'coulds' without showing any signs of responsibility. India should be careful against a repeat of such mobocracy incited by the Hindu Taliban Anna Hazare.

    Definitely there are difference of opinions with in Anna team.Anna's insistence on the Bill by force which may undermine the parliamentary democracy of India on one hand, in spite of appeal by Parliament,PM,President,Oppn and Ruling parties, Anna remained adamant and continued his fast till his dictated demand accepted.In democracy there should be give and take policy which might angered Swami Agnivesh or Justice Santhosh Hegde who were distanced Anna in the last few days.What Swami's concern is finally democracy should prevail over .......?
