The popular movement is distinct from a pressure group campaigning for Right to Information that bears the same name.— it is in our lead. I am facing difficulties to find where it has been discussed in details in articles body, hence, it might be "unsourced" claim.
Those involved with the IAC core committee eventually diverged to form the— unclear. Article mentions, some people stayed even after the split.

The popular movement is distinct from a pressure group campaigning for Right to Information that bears the same name.from the lede. Given the paucity of reliable sources available concerning its present activities (if any) and the apparent contradiction with the quote from the Hindustan Times at the end of the "Divergence" section.
Those involved with the IAC core committee eventually diverged to form the Aam Aadmi Party and Jantantra Morcha.to something like:
Divergenceto
Split.
If that line is removed, the article becomes only on the movementis absolutely key here and leads to my suggestion for more long-term solution. My suggestions above are simply an interim solution. This article plus 2011 Indian anti-corruption movement and 2012 Indian anti-corruption movement are all unfortunate consequences of recentism and various groups of activists seeing Wikipedia as yet another arm of social media to promote their cause. In the long term all three articles should be merged (with considerable pruning of all three) into 2011 – 2012 Indian anti-corruption movement. Note that there is already a long-standing proposal to merge the 2011 and 2012 Indian anti-corruption movement articles. This article could be a subsection of that merged article. Such a major restructuring would take a lot of work. Perhaps a task force of WikiProject India could take it on. It needs experienced editors thoroughly familiar with the appropriate Indian sources and an ability to write coherent and concise prose. Voceditenore ( talk) 07:26, 16 October 2014 (UTC)
The popular movement is distinct from a pressure group campaigning for Right to Information that bears the same name.Further it is only there claim that the Hindustan Times of 3 September 2013 Published
The group, which now runs — and claims to own — the IAC, mostly comprises Right to Information (RTI) activists.This should be removed.Further whether Veeresh Malik is notable puts that He is a Co-convenor and co-founder of the India Against Corruption anti-corruption movement.Now cannot find a source outside there own website.

Per this discussion so far, I have provisionally changed the lede along the lines suggested. I have also removed "along with Team Anna" from the lede. It was problematic for a number of reasons, but primarily because it implies that IAC=Team Anna, which is not strictly true, at least according to the sources. I have also renamed the "Divergence Section" to "Internal split" and made a more precise redirect from Team Anna. I have also made some slight tweaks to the "Internal split" section to bring it more into line with what the sources actually said. For ease of comparison and discussion, see this diff showing the changes I made. Voceditenore ( talk) 09:24, 17 October 2014 (UTC)
<I've blanked this previously collapsed section per Wikipedia:Long-term abuse/India Against Corruption sock-meatfarm. Wikipedia will not host threats and groundless attacks against individuals. Bishonen | talk 11:24, 19 October 2014 (UTC).>
It was obvious to me that was a sock. There are a lot of changes going on that look wrong to me but not much I can do about it from here. - Sitush ( talk) 02:59, 19 October 2014 (UTC)
India against corruption name was in dispute and we do not want to advance any self published claim as per WP:BURDEN. Remove the self claim of IAC published in Hindustan Times. It is better to leave it out of the article.We go by Wikipedia:Verifiability, not truth. WP:RS sources list Anna Hazare as the founder Washington Post mentions Arvind Kejriwal .
On Talk:Sarbajit_Roy I've requested an edit to nominate the redirect for deletion. Stuartyeates ( talk) 19:08, 10 November 2014 (UTC)
