Bengaluru: The Udupi Pejawar Math seer Vishwesha Tirtha has stated on Sunday that he hoped the Indian Prime Minister and the Judiciary would be within the Judicial area of ‘Jan Lok Pal bill activity. The Swamiji spoke to media persons on Sunday, July 3 here, saying that he opposed keeping them outside Lok Pal’s clutches, as the bill would be incomplete without them in the purview.
He wanted everyone to be covered by Lok Pal, but did not specify in Temple wealth and religious wealth scandals. But if PM, all MPs, ministers, elected represent actives came under Lok Pal’s eagle eyes, Corruption can be brought under effective control, he thought.
Further telling about forces ranged against corruption in a new Kurukshetra war (Like Sanjaya), Swamiji approved of Anna Hazare’s fights, and fully supported his efforts to drive out bad methods of cornering wealth, seen in India.
He wanted Hazare to accept the final form of Lokpal bill when it is passed by Lok Sabha. So doing amounted to going along with democracy, he whispered softly.
