2. Team Anna's Jan Lokpal Bill
3. Lokpal Bill made by Aruna Roy

Finance Minister Pranab Mukherjee will explain about the entire issue and the Government's strategy after which Leader of Opposition Sushma Swaraj will speak.

After discussions with Team Anna BJP said they will support Janlokpal Bill with few amendments in that bill.

Chief Minister Tarun Gogoi on Friday said that the chief minister would be brought under the ambit of the Lokayukta Bill in Assam.

Last 7 years Gujarat Government had not appointed Lokayukta but finally taking a brave and honest step the Gujarat Governor has appointed Retd Justice RA Mehta as Lokayukta of the state, bypassing the Narendra Modi-led BJP government
