New Delhi: All MPs cutting across the party line got united and slammed anti-graft crusader Anna Hazare and his team members for using "derogatory" language against the lawmakers.

 

However, Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar rejected a censure motion on this issue. The motion was moved by NDA Convenor Sharad Yadav. Meira Kumar said that the dignity of parliament should be upheld because people elect their representatives to the house with faith in them.

 

"Parliament reflects the collective view of the country. Any remark lowering the dignity of the house is unwarranted and unacceptable," she said.

 

Meanwhile, key Team Anna member Arvind Kejriwal adopted a defiant attitude and said Team Anna said nothing wrong and that he was ready to face any charges. Kejriwal said at least 162 MPs are facing criminal charges.
