"The only problem is that he didn't understand the issue fully... If he had more understanding of the issue, then his answer would have been different," she said on the micro-blogging site Twitter.

"For me the jan lokpal bill is higher than issues/persons as Anna's Team."

Kejriwal, however, chose to play down the matter and said there were no differences in the core team.

"We are all together with Kiran Bedi. (There are) no differences. Let's focus on the Jan Lokpal, and not individuals. Despite all efforts from vested interests to create a rift among us, we are all together like a rock," he said.

Bedi was furious after Kejriwal, in an interview on Friday, said: "She should not have done it (inflated travel bills). She has said it will not happen again. I would not have done what Kiran Bedi did."
