Advantage of Lokpal Bill

Major advantage of this bill is all about solving the No.1 problem of India is

CORRUPTION.

Who will be the decision makers this time, nonpoliticians, non-bureaucrats,

not a police officer.

This bill is proposed to the government again and again in last 50 years so

this holds the believe of generations and we all think this can change the

system.

The decision will be faster than what we have right now, the proposed

decision will be 1 year and punishment will be executed in 2 years.

People will not have to go through the grueling system to complain the crime.

Major Disadvantages of Lokpal Bill

This is not a mature bill, still lot many open issues, I will write them all here

before I write about the possible fix for it. I could be an ignorant about the

complete bill but I tried to read it from various places and I didnt notice

anyone describing these issues.

Huge burden on government to run this, it needs huge money to manage the

head counts.

I dont understand why it needs 1 year for decision and another 1 year for thepunishment.

How someone can guarantee there will be No minister or bureaucrat

influence on their investigations.

How can it be assured that Lokpal members are not corrupted? Dont we

have corrupted judges, citizens and constitutional authorities, who says

only the politicians are corrupted?

I believe we are responsible for the corrupted system and we should be the

one to fix it, government will have to support us as we support thegovernment. Here are my thoughts.

How can we reduce the monetary burden on government and solve the

problem? We dont need to hire the 100% decision makers, we can hire only

administrative people to manage the system and the decision makers will be

the regular citizens. We all solve some issues on daily basis and we dont

need to be qualified to solve them. There are more than 70% issues in India

that dont need be investigated at all. Lets say I applied for a passport

renewal and the department lost it, there are 3-4 people responsible for

handling the passport and everyone should be punished equally. Let them all

pay Rs 10,000 each and find out who the real culprit internally. This way I get

some compensation for losing the passport and the office work as a grouprather than an individual. It is a common problem in India that the staffs think

them to be individual than a group and they make you run from one to other

for a small task. To make these kind of simple decisions we dont need

fulltime and highly qualified people. Who will be member for this case will be

auto selected and everyone will be paid something to show up at the decided

place. People who are not going to show up will end up in paying huge

amount so that it becomes everyones responsibility to participate, there can

be some excuses for emergency reasons.

We dont need 1 year to solve a case now, major part of the complains can be

solved in 3 months and punished in 2-6 months if we make everyone to come

and participate. Now the government will have at least 60 billion staff to

handle the cases.

People participating in the cases will be informed at the site on the details so

there is no upfront information available or relation build before the D day.

There cant be any influence as no one gets time, influence will come in when

we give time to the case and people on the case are known.

How can a Lokpal member be corrupted now? Person doesnt know anything,

goes to solve a problem and takes a decision on the spot.

For the case that needs to be investigated properly needs some fulltime

employees as the decision makers. Give an opportunity to people above the

age of 50 to retire from their regular job and join the department. They have

50 years of track record to prove if they are uncorrupted or not, this head

count can be 50%. Other 50% can be fresh candidates from various ages.

Every case should involve audience, if a person is not satisfied with the

decision then he can take an audience poll for reapply. If audience support

him to file again then he is not charged to re-file else he is going to pay good

amount for reconsideration. Failing 3 times will lock him to the punishment

and cant apply for reconsideration to any of his cases for next 5 years.

There can be many things added to this bill to make it incorruptible. If we are

just trying to shift from one corrupt system to another then there is no point

in passing this. Making this bill a best one is the job of the government and

we all have to participate and make it work from approval to execution. Do

you agree with me, let me know here, I am open to any kind debate.
