Days after its much publicised agitation in Mumbai and Delhi fizzled out, Team Anna appears to be confused on how to take forward the fight for a strong Lokpal saying the movement is at "crossroads" and a wrong decision at this stage can prove disastrous for it.

Though it chose to bring BJP under the line of fire for admitting tainted politicians like Babu Singh Kushwaha into its fold to blunt criticism of being anti-Congress, it did not spare Congress claiming that Anna Hazare felt cheated by the Prime Minister and the seniormost leadership on Lokpal issue.

With Hazare indisposed and calling off his agitation plans as well as his tour of five poll-bound states to campaign against Congress, it was prominent Team Anna member Arvind Kejriwal who aired the team's views in an article saying that they were conscious that a wrong decision at this stage for the movement.

"The anti-corruption movement is at the crossroads today. Where do we go from here? We are conscious that a wrong decision at this stage could prove disastrous for the movement. I met Anna in hospital two days back," he said.

Kejriwal's views in public came a week after an ailing Hazare called off his Mumbai fast mid-way and future agitation plans, including jail bharo agitation.

On the advice of doctors, Hazare has also decided not to go ahead with the tour of five states to campaign against Congress for "cheating" people on the Lokpal issue.

He also sought to puncture allegations that they are anti-Congress by attacking BJP for admitting Kushwah, accused of corruption, into its fold saying how can they support a party which admits the likes of him.
