Congress working committee for West Sikkim welcomes Parliamentary Resolutions on Lokpal Bill

GANGTOK, 28 August: A meeting of West District working committee of the Sikkim Pradesh Congress Committee was convened at Boom under Rinchenpong constituency today chaired by the district in-charge, SPCC vice president, Pema Kinzang Bhutia. The meeting was also attended by the WDCC president, Buddhibal Gurung, members of the PCC and DCCs, party functionaries and large number of party supporters, informs a press release. 
Addressing the meeting, Mr. Bhutia welcomed the Parliamentary resolution on Anna Hazare’s Jan Lokpal Bill as having “paved the way for ushering corruption free era in the history of the country”.
Claiming a strong Lokpal Bill to be a “long cherished target” of the Congress party, he said that the latest development was an achievement of the Congress-led UPA Government at the Centre.
In this context he also highlighted the statement of Rahul Gandhi, made  in the zero hour of the parliament on Friday, in which he advocated that Lokpal be incorporated as a Constitutional body on the lines of the Election Commission of India.
In the Sikkim context, he announced that the Congress here would continue its efforts to bring the State Government here to book for its alleged corrupt ways.
He further expressed that the implementation of the Lokpal Bill will also facilitate the formation of an independent Lokayukta in the state which he contended will ensure justice to the “economically oppressed” in the near future.
