No apology for 'act': Kiran Bedi


Delhi:  Kiran Bedi, a close associate of Anna Hazare, has denied media reports, including one on NDTV.com, that said she apologised for her on-stage theatrics targeting MPs.

The NDTV correspondent apologises for the error in the report.

In her tweet Kiran Bedi said, "The truth is bitter. It is difficult to take. This is understandable. I am seeing what many are not. Hence, the ghunghat illustration."

On Friday evening, Ms Bedi, who was famous as a tough and fair police officer when she was in service, attacked an MP who arrived at Ramlila Maidan, where 74-year-old Anna is on the 11th day of his fast.

"Ask him what is he going to do," she asked the crowd. "They (the MPs) say one thing inside (parliament) and another thing outside."

And then she shouted "They (the MPs) wear masks!"

Ms Bedi then proceeded to pull a scarf from the neck of a young activist on stage, wrapped it over her head like a 'ghunghat' (veil) and proceeded to mock MPs and their "double-faced utterances".

"This is how they behave," she trilled, "one thing with a mask and another without a mask."
