Anna Hazare’s demands are un-constitutional because under the Constitution Parliament is supreme. Team Anna Hazare has rejected the official draft of the Lokpal Bill. The MP’s including ministers on the Government side argue that the official version of the Lokpal Bill is referred to a Standing Committee comprising MP’s, whose final draft will be placed before the Parliament and the Parliament may pass the Bill with or without amendments or may totally reject it. Under the Constitution the Parliament is supreme and no one can question their decision. As the Parliament is supreme MPs can raise their own salaries and perks to any level and even sky is not the limit. The corrupt MP’s in the parliament shall make their own draft Lokpal Bill and pass it. Or they may pass no Lokpal Bill at all as they have been doing all these 40 years or so. People can only helplessly watch. If a Constitution gives unbridled powers to a set of corrupt people, what kind of Constitution is that? MP’s take bribe and vote a bill to please a foreign power. Even the Supreme Court cannot question them. What kind of Constitution is that?
MP’s, with their shameless record, quoting the Constitution to claim that Parliament is supreme, is like the Devil quoting the scriptttures.
