The Union Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee today said that the right to recall elected representatives and reject candidates as demanded by activist Anna Hazare was not feasible in a huge country like India.
Without naming Hazare, Mukherjee said “India is the largest functional democracy in the world with its over 122 crore population and each Lok Sabha MP has an average electorate of 15 lakh. Under such circumstances, I do not know whether such demand is feasible”.
