New Delhi: Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan has invited Team Anna members to discuss about enacting a strong Lokayukta law in the state on the lines of Uttarakhand.
The Chief Minister and Team Anna members would deliberate upon the implementation of Jan Lokayukta which provides for a strong protection for whistle-blowers, a Team Anna release
said here today. The meeting will take place tomorrow.
Team Anna said they would also demand for effective action in all the complaints of illegal mining in the state.
The invitation for discussions comes after Team Anna
members led by Sharad Singh Kumre demanded immediate passage
of the Jan Lokayukta Bill in the state on the lines of the one
enacted in Uttarakhand.
Kumre along with other member Vipin Kothari had sat on a
three-day fast to press for Jan Lokayukta in the state.
The fast that began on March 13 was called off yesterday
night after an official from the MP government invited Kumre
for talks with Chouhan, the release said.
