- (File image) Kapil Sibbal and Anna Hazare come out after attending a meeting of the Lokpal Bill drafting committee in New Delhi - PTI.
Civil society representatives on Wednesday hit out at the government for saying they wanted to create a ‘parallel government’ through an ombudsman and said their draft anti-graft bill aimed for an autonomous Lokpal free of government interference.
Addressing a press conference a day after the final meeting of the 10-member draft Lokpal bill panel, comprising five each from the civil society and the government, noted social activist Anna Hazare accused the government of trying to mislead the people on the legislation.
The anti-corruption crusader vowed to launch a hunger strike from August 16 at Jantar Mantar in the heart of the capital if a strong Lokpal bill, as demanded by them, is not passed by parliament.
"We are ready for everything, whether the government lathi charges, we will sit on hunger strike if our demands are not met," Hazare said.
"We don't want a parallel government. We want an autonomous Lokpal on the lines of Election Commission, and the government can't interfere in its function. We have the Supreme Court and the Right to Information (RTI) Act, which they cannot interfere in," Hazare said.

- 04) After seeing how Ramdev, the great Yogi, wilted within One Week of undertaking his
05) Government also has its limitations and without the support of the majority of MPs in Parliament, no bill can become an Act, for which a consensus needs to be built by it among all the political parties.
06) Team-Anna, blissfully, is oblivious to these realities and has been harping on the much repeated theory of the Government's insincerity on Lokpal and the general public has realised of this aspect!
07) Any further pressure won't serve any purpose and the Team-Anna better realise it, the sooner, the better!
