All the debate on passing a strong Janlokpal bill is being deliberately given twists and turns just in order to prolong and ultimately defeat the purpose of the bill.  The ruling alliance has absolutely no intention of bringing the Lokpal bill.  The ruling alliance is trying all the tricks in the book to delay and defeat the passing of the bill.  There is only one and one  reason behind all this deliberate delay and design.  The ruling alliance is neck deep in corruption.  Then how would they pass the bill which is going to drastically reduced their ability to mint money by looting their rich nation and poor countrymen.  As far as the inclusion of the PM under the ambit of the Lokpal is concerned MMS has no objection in bringing the PM under the Lokpal because he is by and large honest.  But the real worry for the congressmen is if their half Italian boss becomes the PM tomorrow he would also has to be under the Lokpal.  This is the reason Congressmen are opposing .the inclusion of the office of the PM and not because they have any love lost for MMS. the present incumbent.


One more thing.  If the govt were sincere about passing the Lokpal bill; it could have been done in just a single day by calling a joint session of the parliament and get it through.  Indira Gandhi passed the 42nd constitution Amendment bill in 1975 in a single day from both houses of parliament, got  president's assent and notified the bill making it the law in one day just because it suited the then PM Indira Gandhi.          
I am deeply disturbed, upset and hurt at the turn of events in India.  First of all I would like to comment on three judgements emanating from the judicial officers in India. (1) The Sharad Pawar slap; the person who slapped Pawar has been denied bail on fake, flimsy , false and untenable grounds just because the aggrieved person is a powerful politician.  (2) The brute village head who mercilessly thrashed a women school teacher publically, for no fault of hers,  is granted immediate bail by the judge before whom he was produced.  The difference in the conduct of two judges makes a mockery of the equality before law. (3) the molester cop, a convicted criminal SPS Rathore , has been ordered to be paid his pension though he has deeply shamed the elite IPS service and escaped punishment for abetment to murder because of the high position he held in the Haryana police.


The law required that Rathore should have been  summarily dismissed from his service had he been convicted during the period he was in service.  Just because of insensitive and dormant judiciary he abused the justice delivery system for over 20 years as he was close to the powerful politicians who protected and patron-ed him.  He would have lost all post retirement benefits had he been dismissed summarily following his  criminal conduct.and misdemeanour.  A beast who should have been convicted for life for charges like attempted rape, molestation, gross misuse of his official powers, and abetment to suicide is enjoying all the perks and luxury of an elite police service which he abused and shamed. .
