In this connection, we wish to draw your kind attention to the following extract from the TOI Editorial titled "Losing Against Corruption" of June 25 - "Hegde's quitting ------- brings the spotlight back on the efficacy of the institution of the lokayukta and lok pal. In India, there are as many as 17 states with the institution of lokayukta. But their power, function and jurisdiction are not uniform across the country. Often, legislators are deliberately kept out of the purview of lokayuktas, -----------------------. The reluctance of our parliamentarians has never allowed the creation of the office of lok pal at the Centre. The Lok Pal Bill has failed as many as eight times in the Lok Sabha.-------- " Under the circumstances, we request you to consider to start a campaign for the enactment of the long pending Lok Pal Bill. This Bill should be the original one as advocated by the then PM Indira Gandhi in 1968, because it has been diluted so much that there is nothing left in its contents except its name. Its background information is given in the attachment No. 1. In this connection, the Gandhian Satyagraha Brigade, being run by a 92 year young 1942 Quit India Movement Freedom Fighter, is working for its enactment for a long time, but in the Gandhian way. Copy of his latest letter addressed to the concerned authorities is attached for your kind consideration to start a campaign for the enactment of the long pending Lok Pal Bill. We are sure if it gets your kind support, then it will bring fruits.
