The Lokpal is a 'bill,' which, if passed by the parliament, will become Law, which would afford the Citizen Many Rights and Much Protection.
For instance, just now, the Agencies which Investigate are ALL under that 'thumb' of the government, notably the CBI. The Lokpal is demanding Independence in Investigation.
It was for things like these that Anna Hazare had undertaken his fast, which lasted 13 days, and he might have expired of the fast, had not the govt promised to bring about the law.
But the govt had used the ill famed 'Political Nipple' of promising to fulfill it, and then I suppose it conveniently 'forgot' about it. Hence Anna's Second Fast.
Now, with elections around the corner, ALL political parties, (well, almost all), are in a HURRY to get the bill passed. Whatever he is, anna is an adamant man. If the bill is not passed, he will not give up his fast. And the govt would not Dare to force-feed him; Anna has become that big, the People are very much behind him, and things are very much in the lime-light. ...But what they intend to pass is such a mockery, that it is known as the Jokepal bill.
Now, in this, the Jokepal, if You are complaining about 'x', 'he' himself would carry out the Investigation! ...If You want time to laugh, You can have it! (By the way, this is what happens in the catholic church too!).
The Common Man faces Many, Many problems in govt offices. (Shall write about this soon). And You can imagine what would happen, when the might of the government machinery unites and gathers against him. Upon the Common Man falls, in the Jokepal bill, the Onus of proving the charges. Instead of proving it in his Village, surrounded by His People, he has to do that 'Among the goons, against the goons.'
+Arvind Kejriwal put it Superbly when He said: 'In its current form, the bill won't send a mouse to jail, forget a politician.'
