The current Facebook generation needs to understand first of all what is corruption? As far as Anna Hazare movement is concerned, youngsters first need to understand - is really goverment's version of Lokpal is really bad? No. It does not contain PM to be included thats all. The Prime Minister should be excluded from the purview of the bill as he is already covered under the Prevention of Corruption Act and the CBI can investigate. Morever if that clause is included then the bill could be used by foreign powers to “destabilise” the nation as if the Prime Minister was included under the Bill, he cannot function as he would have to focus more on defending himself against the accusations.It would seriously dent the PM’s authority even if charges were proved wrong. Moreover parties like nonsecular or religious minded polictical parties will try to oppose the PM , who MAY BE A broad minded and nice person. Offcourse if a PM is found to be a fraud, nationwide protest would be made and PM can be removed. So there is no need for PM to be included in Lokpal Bill. Anna and presently even other parties , desperate to be back in public eyes and power, are cashing on , in this so called jokepal bill, introduced by Govt. Reality is Lokpal is not really as made out to be by some sections of society and The establishment of Lokayukta as said by Govt will tackle state-level corruption and will serve as a helping hand to the Supreme Court too as probing in every case of CBI is not possible. Remeber our PM Manmohan Singh , DOESNOT have problem in him personally being included.as everyone knows and is of opinion that he is utmost honest person and has been a grea financial minister too. Goverment is only relenting on having PM and top level official under that purview in this bill thats all, that too so that no one destablises any governments' PM in the future that easily..without proper reasons or with wrong accusations. Also the recent scams have exposed corruption in DMK, SP and BJP parties and not Congress persons directly . Also those who are gulity, be it from any party, must be punished but not those who are innocent. Am not supporting any party rightnow, but saying this wastage of energy and money happening on promoting few guys of Anna Team , is bringing our nation down and gives impression that a good governance can be brought down easily. Media and younsters need to be responsible. Last two days, what has been happening? Why no one questions who is funding the SMS being forwarded, the event management company and people who are arranging TV interviews and schedule with different channels, what about Sawant Commission charges imposed on Kisan Baburao read PM 's statement - https://www.hindustantimes.com/News-Feed/newdelhi/PM-defends-Anna-s-arrest-says-his-path-is-totally-misconceived/Article1-734168.aspx, Our Goverment , at the top, is already pressing for Lokpal Bill, DTC and GST bills but its being delayed by others and not our govt. If the highest executives and judicial officers are included in the purview of Jan Lokpal Bill, there will be 'total anarchy.
