Govt not sincere in fighting corruption: Anna Hazare

CNN-IBN

Ralegan Siddhi: Anti-corruption activist Anna Hazare on Wednesday lashed out at the Government, claiming that it was not serious in fighting corruption.

Anna said, "The Government is not willing to remove the corruption."

He also demanded that the Group C & D employees should be brought under Lokpal's ambit.

Questioning Parliament Standing Committee's Lokpal Bill draft, Anna asked, "When some Congress members are saying that C & D employees should be brought under lokpal ambit then why is government not doing it?"

Threatning another agitation if a strong Lokpal Bill is not passed, Anna said, "If the Government doesn't listen then I will go on agitation again. Will go to all five states where elections are going to take place."

"If Government wants then it will bring the Lokpal Bill in this session only. If they want, they can extend the session," said Anna.
