Hazare Reminds PM Modi On Lokayukta & Anti-Corruption Promise

01 January, Pune

Social Activist Anna Hazare Friday sent another letter to Prime Minister Narendra Modi, reminding him of his unfulfilled poll promises and said there is no visible difference between his government and the previous Congress-led UPA regime.

The 78-year-old anti-graft crusader, wishing Modi New Year, said, “You have been forgotten the things which you promised during the 2014 Lok Sabha campaign.” The Activist raised the various issues in his letter like bringing back black money and building a corruption-free India.

The letter was issued to the media here Friday.

Modi reminding of the need to implement the Lokpal and Lokayukta Act properly and fulfil other key poll promises, Hazare said that several letters written by him earlier on these subjects to the Prime Minister had also been ignored.

“I am writing again to remind you of these things. I am aware that several letters written by me to you have been dumped in the waste paper basket. This letter may also meet the same fate. “I dont expect a PM to respond to each and every letter written to him as it is not possible. However, there should be reply to the letter by a social activist who has dedicated his life to the nation,” Hazare said.
