If we the people allow the gutter politicians to force the Bhushans to quit, I think we should also bid goodbye to the Lokpal & any hope of fighting corruption in India. Face it - a country that can so easily give in to an obvious villification campaign run by a class of people that can stoop to any depth to protect their privileges - does not deserve anything better than the sorry country we currently have. I hope the Bhushans dont quit, but sadly they might just decide that if even the public start chattering on the basis of these innuendos, then they have nothing to gain except unnecessary harassment from staying in the panel !
