clause 17 of JAN LOKPAL BILL

Clause 17 of Jan Lokpal Bill would provide brilliant ideas in keeping the corrupts away from the purview of Lokpal.Mr Anna Hazare may not understand the repurcussions but I am surprised that learned advocates who might have been instrumental in preparation of the proposed draft have not thought it proper to delete the clause.

The same is the case with LOKAYUKTA BILL.

Is this is only the exercize to crate some more jobs for unemployed and positions for forerunners.

Huge public money would be wasted and nothing would be achieved if the clause 17 is not deleted.

constitutional reform!

jai hind!

Raise voice to delete clause 17 from proposed draft of JAN LOKPAL BILL.

A section of political leaders, in a covert and overt manner, is expressing anger and dissent against LOK PAL BILL and definitely against ANNA HAZARE. They want to say that “WHAT ARE THE ROLE AND IMPORTANCE OF PARLIAMENT, LEGISLATORS AND COURTS THEN IF CIVIL SOCIETY TAKES OVER AND DECIDE COUNTRY’S ISSUES”? These politicians EVEN IN THE GARB OF!!RENOWNED ADVOCATES!! irrespective of political colours bred corruption during the last 50 years or so in their public life and private life as well and successfully resisted/avoided the passage of LOKPAL BILL for the last four decades. They are still active to defeat the purpose LOKPAL BILL AND MANOEUVERING NOT TO DELETE CLAUSE 17of the bill.

The civil society led by ANNA HAZARE and followed by prominent persons like KIRAN BEDI and others have become the watchdog of the country to detect, prevent and punish corrupt politicians and bureaucrats. It is a good sign that the young citizens in particulars expressed wholehearted support for the successful implementation of the LOKPAL BILL.DELETE CLAUSE 17 IMMEDIATELY!!!!
