Medha Patkar, a member of Team Anna, on Friday said there was a need for "overhauling" the group as it was facing a number of allegations and many members of the core committee were being targeted.

At the same time, Patkar said she will not be attending Saturday's core committee meeting, which Anna Hazare and Justice Santosh Hegde have also decided to skip.

"I don't think there is a difference of opinion. The only thing is a bit of overhauling is certainly becoming necessary because there are a number of allegations and core committee members are being targeted," she said.

She said Saturday's meeting of the committee will be in a better position to take a decision on the overhauling.

Her remarks came as another Team Anna member Kumar Vishwas shot off a letter to Hazare on the eve of the core committee meeting, seeking its expansion to make it more representative against the backdrop of Congress leaders targeting it.

He said the leaders of the ruling party were targeting Hazare and each member of the core committee, trying to tarnish their public image and credibility.

Patkar, a prominent member of the core committee, said all its members are with the movement.

"The movement does not mean only the core committee," she asserted.

Asked about Justice Santosh Hegde's remarks on allegations faced by Team Anna members -- "it's a nice churning and 'manthan' is going on" -- Patkar said he was not giving any opinion against the committee or the movement.

"He has the right to give his own frank opinion whether it is with respect to any allegation or otherwise," she said.
