Well,the massive response generated by anna hazare campaign has forced me back from the self imposed exile from facebook.Contrary to most people,i would be focussing on what is 'RIGHT' and what is 'REALISTIC'.Mind u,we are not living in the gandhi age.We ought to be practical and stress on the things that could be achieved rather that run amok after barely teneble stuff.
First of all let me make my own stance clear.I am totally against this congress govt and i have been since for the past 2 years or so,way before ppl came to know about 2g scam and stuff.I believe its a party run by ppl who have no zeal for the betterment of this nation,they are simply reaping the benefits of a particular surname......u ppl know what.Added upon that a puppet prime minister,sorry a mute puppet i meant.For anyone who follows politics closely would agree with me here that prime minister fails to instill confidence in general public.I am not saying bjp ppl are great saints,but atleast we had in atal bihari vajpayee a man whose thunderous oratorship captured the nation's imagination,it gave ppl some hope(maybe false,but still).
Now lets start with lokpal bill.First of all the motive of the bill is very clear,it aims to end corruption at all the levels.No one can dispute that if rightly implemented(which i recon isn't possible),this can seriously dent corruption.I mean not only ppl but even politicians would be scared of indulging in immoral behaviour(i mean corruption,not other 'immoral 'deeds,lol).This bill as a result could be called a very idealistic one,just like a hindi film hero fighting the villain.Anyone who has studied physics will remember carnot engine that has efficiency of 100 %.But are all these things practically possible???The answer is resounding No.
REASONS:
1)Bill has to be ultimately passed by the parliament only,if u hear anna camp's demand.All they say is that their draft should be kept alongside the official govt. draft.They DON'T demand their bill to be passed against parliament.So do u really think MP's will accept anything that makes them poorer(yes,u heard me)..by huge margins by putting parliament under lokpal.How will lalu commit fodder scam,how would a raja earn money??So this is practically impossible.
2)I am sure everyone would be happy to hear the opposition out,,,some may even be moved by their statements.But ppl don't forget opposition supports anna on more or less only one issue that is including pm under the lokpal.And by the way BJP,considering they win the nexy election ould be coming to power after 9 odd years and am pretty sure most of them would be ready for their 'pound of flesh'.Do u think they will let anything come in their way?laughable
3)The third bone of contention is juditiary.As the govt has already announced that it would make a seperate judicial commission,there is very little chance of it coming under purview.But i am of the opinion that it should be under lokpal as the last two of the chief justices of supreme court,justice yk sabharwal and justice balakrishnan have been alleged to have committed some wrongdoing.
RESULT and PREDICTION
I think that after careful consideration the govt will eventually agree to:
1)bring all the govt employees(i mean all) under the lokpal although i doubt they will include IAS officers.
2)appointment of lokpal will be free of govt. control.This govt law vests the entire power of appointment of lokpal member to the govt which in itself is self defeating
3)lokpal will have only the investigating powers,,,no punishment powers
4)ppl who complain against the corrupt would be protected
5)CBI will be OUT of lokpal purview contrary to what anna wants,but govt simply won't agree on this,take my word for that
Now after all this thinking i truly believe that anna should negotiate with govt over the issues mentioned above but i doubt much will come out of it as don't forget it is not me or u who has to pass the bill.It is the parliament and u know what??IT IS FULL OF POLITICIANS.LOL

Govt. of India- of the party, by the party and most importantly FOR THE PARTY...nothing for "The People"
ReplyDeletethis bill is supposed to be for "The People"...how can it be passed so easily????
I'm in total support of the bill...even if it's not totally implemented it'll be better than anything we have now...but only if it's not diluted to the useless format the govt. has proposed...
the original proposals are sound and any individual who has even the slightest interest in tackling the problem of corruption and a slight bit of goodwill will support this bill...
the govt. by opposing the bill is merely incriminating itself further that its full of people who will not profit by this bill even if they dont get punished...
