Rahul Gandhi is a late entrant to anti-corruption bandwagon : BJP

New Delhi:  Attacking Rahul Gandhi for his push to anti-corruption bills recently, BJP today said he was a "late entrant" in the anti-graft bandwagon and his effort was "not genuine" as he never spoke earlier

The bills that Gandhi was seeking to push through included Public Procurement Bill, Timely Delivery of Electronic Services and Goods, Citizens Charter Bill, a bill dealing with Bribery of Foreign Officials and Prevention of Corruption Act (Amendment) Bill, besides the Whistleblower Bill, which was passed by Parliament.

The government has termed the Judicial Standards and Accountability bill as an anti-corruption measure but since the legislation deals with corruption in judiciary, Government is unlikely to bring any Ordinance on this.Swaraj observed that the "least work" was done during the just-concluded Parliament session.

"Ruling party MPs created hurdles (in functioning of Parliament)...Congress has lost control over its ministers and
MPs," she said.
