Dehradun: Uttarakhand Chief Minister Vijay Bahuguna today said the state Lokayukta will be constituted on the same pattern as that of Lokpal Bill tabled in Parliament.
Bahuguna said in reply to an allegation made by BJP's prime ministerial candidate Narendra Modi during a rally here yesterday that Congress was not implementing the Lokayukta Bill approved by the state Assembly during previous BJP-led government in Uttarakhand.
After a discussion with Opposition parties in the state Assembly the Lokayukta Bill will be modelled on the pattern of Lokpal Bill passed by the Lok Sabha, which has the support of both BJP and anti-graft crusader Anna Hazare, Bahuguna said.
The Chief Minister said that the new Lokayukta would be implemented in the state before the deadline of February 28, 2014.
