Anna Hazare today said that he had no objection to making Lokpal a constitutional authority, as suggested by Congress general secretary Rahul Gandhi, provided that it faced no governmental interference.
“I am not opposed to the Lokpal being made a constitutional authority on the lines of Election Commission, which is an autonomous body. But there should not be any governmental interference in the functioning. It was ten years ago that EC had written to the government on ‘right to reject’, but still it has not become a law,” Hazare said, talking to PTI here.
