Simple facts about Lokpal bill

Lokpal bill in fact, it was never implement till date. The Lokpal bill was first introduced by Shanti Bhushan in 1968 and passed the 4th Lok Sabha in 1969 But before it could be passed by Rajya Sabha, Lok Sabha was dissolved and the bill lapsed, The Subsequent versions were re-introduced in 1971, 1977, 1985, 1989, 1996, 1998, 2001, 2005 and in 2008, but none of them passed and today civil activist Anna Hazare started a Satyagraha movement by commencing an indefinite fast in New Delhi to demand the passing of the bill. The movement attracted attention in the media, and hundreds of thousands of supporters. Following Hazare's four day hunger strike, Indian Prime Minister Manmohan Singh stated that the bill would be re-introduced in the 2011 monsoon session of the Parliament. Accordingly, a committee of five Cabinet Ministers and five social activists attempted to draft a compromise bill merging the two versions but failed. The Indian government went on to propose its own version in the parliament, which the activists rejected on the grounds of not being sufficiently effective. So until this day Lokpal bill was never introduce and it was politically introduced and  practically never implemented. Lokpal was established to measure the frequency of a central government anti-corruption institution. So why this Lokpal bill never introduce to measure anti – corruption, when the people of democracy demanded for it, so its like there is no democry but anarchy, the rulling make decission and not by the people. I think there is also certain positive aspects of ANNA HAZARE indefinite fast protest to pass the bill and off course there is no simple solution to eradicate corrupt political leaders but I think this is the simple solution to make the country more effective and become free political corruption country. If Lokpal bill is introduce frequently, awareness of political leaders will rise and less chance of misusing the government and its people.

I don't know if i fully understand the ideas of so call Lokpal bill, but this is me of what i know.... please share your opinion.
