Prime Minister Manmohan Singh : We want a strong Lokpal to prevent corruption
New Delhi: The centre stage of the speech is the Corruption issue, and he is advised the team Anna to show respect to constitution , a part of speech is given here on this issue. Addressing the nation on 65th Independence day, Prime Minister Manmohan Singh started his speech by saying :
My dear countrymen,
"I heartily greet 120 crore Indians on the 64th anniversary of our independence".
"I have been addressing you from the historic Red Fort for the last seven years………………
“We want a strong Lokpal to prevent corruption in high places. We have recently introduced a Bill in Parliament to achieve this. Now only Parliament can decide what type of Lokpal legislation should be enacted. I am aware of the differences of opinion on some aspects of the Bill. Those who don't agree with this Bill can put forward their views to Parliament, political parties and even the press. However, I also believe that they should not resort to hunger strikes and fasts unto death.”
I have said so much on corruption because I know that this problem is a matter of deep concern for all of us. However, this is a difficulty for which no government has a magic wand. We are taking simultaneous action on many fronts in our fight against corruption. We want all political parties to stand shoulder to shoulder with us in this fight. To eradicate corruption, we have introduced, and will introduce, many Bills in Parliament. I hope that all political parties will cooperate in the process of converting these Bills into statutes. On the issue of corruption, I would like to say in the end that we can win the fight against corruption only when each and every citizen of India cooperates in it.
