Maharashtra brings CM under ambit of lokayukta bill

IndiaTimes Monday, 18 December 2023
The Lokayukta Bill 2022 in Maharashtra brings the chief minister under the anti-corruption authority; replaces the old Lokayukta & Uplokayukta Act, 1971; the highest public office is now accountable to the ombudsman. The draft was created after meetings with Anna Hazare. If the Lokayukta finds merit in a complaint against the CM, he can start a preliminary inquiry and seek the Vidhan Sabha's permission to prosecute the CM.

Sam Pitroda Row: PM Modi attacks MK Stalin over Pitroda’s controversial racist remarks | Watch

On Chairman of Indian Overseas Congress Sam Pitroda's controversy, PM Modi says,"...A close aide of Congress and biggest adviser of 'Prince' (Rahul Gandhi), what he said is very shameful. Congress feels that people of Northeast look like Chinese, can a country accept such things? Congress feels that the people of South India look like Africans. I want to ask the Congress Chief Ministers of Karnataka and Telangana, can they accept such opinions? I want to ask the Tamil Nadu CM who keeps talking about Tamil Nadu culture, such a big allegation has been made, will DMK break alliance with Congress for the self-respect of Tamil, does he have the guts for that?... Congress feels people of the West look like Arabs, I want to ask the 'fake Shiv Sena chief', remember about Balasaheb Thackeray...will Maharashtra people accept it?...Congress is now making racist statements..."
