Can Government hide behind technicalities?

In last two days, where Anna Hazare ji movement have got huge support, government have been trying to hide behind technicalities of governance and constitution. The official line of government is, "Though, they support the intention behind this battle against corruption, however, because of constitutional reasons, government can't allow any outside (other than legislature) member to draft the bill or be a member of committee which draft such Anti-corruption Bill" . They say that, "Government will welcome all suggestion during consultation process and inculcate those which are possible and agreeable to all"

This view was echoed by Congress media secretary Satyavrat Chaturvedi ji yesterday in a debate at Times Now where Kiran Bedi ji was also participant.

By saying this, government want to portray that they understand the situation however, because of constitutional reasons, they are not been able to assist and cooperate in this movement. This government response is utterly erroneous and deceptive and has been crafted by it's media advisors. Acceptance of this congress proposition means an end to quest for Anti-corruption Bill. Firsly, there would never be any consensus among political parties and they have been stretching the matter since last 40 odd years. Second, consultation and suggestion have no leagal compulsion for government to accept those suggestions and hence at the best suggestions will be found in the garbage while they will pass any Anti-corruption Bill.

================================================== ===
This thread is about discussion on this very facet of government argument and subsequently crafting judicious and untenable response to government argument and make government argument look like hypocritical.
