 Inclusion of retraction by ""The Hindu"" 

This article was the subject of a ""Mediation"" proceeding between 
(a) ""India Against Corruption"" organisation and (b) Wikipedia ""community"" represented by User:Sitush at . 

The core issues were:
(a) Whether the appellations ""Team Anna"" and ""India Against Corruption"" unambiguously refer to the same entity or not
 (b) Whether defamatory / disparaging statements emanating from misuse of the India Against Corruption's title(s) by third parties should be associated with the actual India Against Corruption movement in Wikipedia's article(s), or if these should be taken to articles on Anna Hazare, Team Anna, Jantantra Morcha etc. ?

Midway through the mediation, Sitush dropped out when he couldn't justify his edits. These content issues accordingly stand automatically decided in IAC's favour. 

Despite the decision, the article content is unchanged and the defamatory/disparaging statement remain. On 27.March.2014 the venerable newspaper ""The Hindu"" published a retraction (by means of a clarification) of their story implying that Genl. V.K.Singh and Mr. Anna Hazare were a part of India Against Corruption.

Accordingly, the issues for discussion are proposed as follows:

A) Is the published retraction by ""The Hindu"" worthy of prominent inclusion in this article with the following text, or suchlike

Public Notice

Sarbajit Roy National Convenor of India Against Corruption has issued public notices and clarified ""that persons like Gen (Retd.) V.K.Singh were never associated with India Against Corruption and neither was Mr. Anna Hazare a part of it. Referring to them in the context of IAC is misleading especially in context of political activity"".

B) Should the above information also be prominently included in the article LEDE so that casual internet readers are not confused.

C) Should all content about ""Team Anna"" be deleted or taken back to the ""Team Anna"" article which was unilaterally merged here on 25 Nov. 2013 without notice or discussion.   "
