Logjam grows, states against overarching lokpal ambit - Hindustan Times

Logjam grows, states against overarching lokpal ambit - Hindustan Times

Not just Central ministers, even some state chief ministers are averse to having a lokpal to investigate all cases of corruption as being demanded by civil society. Two chief ministers - Sheila Dikshit of Delhi and Ibobi Singh of Manipur - have out-rightly rejected the idea of an overarching lokpal.

This shows the people have the greatest to lose by the Lokpal bill. Let them declare their hand so Anna Hazare's team know what we are up against. It is always good to know the true strengh of the enemy in any battle.
