[rti4empowerment] REPEALING OF SECTION 19 OF THE PREVENTION OF CORRUPTION ACT

 

The whole exercise of Lokpal Bill and the Jan Lokpal will be redundant,
if only Section 19 of the Prevention of Corruption Act (PCA) is repealed.
Section 5 of the PCA emplowers a complainant to be a
"PUBLIC PROSECUTOR". This is what Dr. Sunramanium Swamy had pleaded in his petition before Supreme Court (Under Article 32 of the Constitution of India read with Section 5 of the PCA) to allow him to prosecute A. Raja as the Government has failed to act.

Only after receiving a Notice from the Supreme Court, did the government acted and Raja is behind the bars.
