    We always hear from lokayuktha about the raids & the money in excess of their earning traced in their properties,but what action have they taken ?? Could they suspend the corrupt officer from his post,is there any case against them?? Is their money & property seized?? Has government initiated action to strip them of their ill earned wealth?? what is the outcome of the raid? Will the lokayuktha the actions taken so far on the cases registered & take the people into confidence of their achievements?? We will salute the Lokayuktha if they can show how many of these officers lost jobs because of corruption .

    All partial and hypocrisy. Why Govt has cast deliberate loopholes
    in the Suo Moto Powers opting Chief Minister, Cabinet Ministers,
    Legislators and Members of Parliament out of the ambit of the
    Lokayukta ? As of now Lokayukta jurisdiction range covers only
    elected representatives like corporators and councilors, civil
    servants which may not bear the desired result in the long run.
    If politicians are corrupt & not prompt, so will be its officials.
    Therefore, Lokayukta should have powers to act on both all
    officers as well people’s representatives to clean the entire
    Govt. corrupt machinery.

    It is better lokayukta submits his resignation and goes home. There is nothing much can be done either to control corruption or punish the corrupt. These are small fish, when sharks are all around occupying the parlimentary seats.
    BJP, I thought will act on corruption, but they proved worst of all. In 02years they were amazing in 'development' of corruption.
