If the Parliament fails to pass the Lokpal Bill, a law that the country has been waiting for more than 40 years.
Anna Hazare has fixed 15th August as a dead line.
The Jan Lokpal Law Act is for the benefit of Every Indian .
Thus Support Anna Hazare.
Today the process is totally stopped in India. No one fears to do corruption as there is no punishment or little punishment pay the 3 times fine and you are free.
Few People are objecting that the father and son duo is there in committee?
Do not be fooled by anyone know that for making bill people need legal knowledge with strong background and who can dominate the meetings from civil side.
We have to see that good law is made for India.
The Committee is for only 2 months its not permanent position.
Both are having legal knowledge and fought against corruption.

thanks.
Jan Lokpal bill is a start to fight with the corrupt political system. It should minimise the power of politicans and bureacrats who are taking the nation for a ride.
Bill should focus on taking the CBI, IT department and Judiciary out of the politicians influence.
Common man is fed up with the political system and none of the political parties have any good developmental agenda. Only they are accusing of each other on petty things.
Poltical leaders should be accountable as they are hlding the highest office. They cannot pass comments that they are not the Jyotishi, they shoukld be prevented from erecting their own statues etc.,conflict of interest should also be taken up,, A leader cannot hold two or more positions as it is happening now.
