HC asks reasons on non-implementation of Lok Ayukta Act in State

IMPHAL, December 2: The High Court of Manipur acting on a PIL case, has asked the concerned authority to give concrete reasons on why the Lok Ayukta Act is not

IMPHAL, December 2: The High Court of Manipur acting on a PIL case, has asked the concerned authority to give concrete reasons on why the Lok Ayukta Act is not implemented in the State till date given that the same Act has already been implemented in other States.

The judgement was passed by a Double Bench of the High Court comprising Chief Justice LK Mohapatra and Justice N Kotishwar today.

This was informed by senior advocate Khaidem Mani who is the counsel of the PIL case during a press meet held at the office building of All Manipur Bar Association at Uripok Cheirap Court this evening.

He claimed that the court also questioned the concerned authority whether it is true that posts of a Chairperson and two Members needed to implement the act effectively have not filled up so far and if it is true then the concerned authority should submit detailed reports to the court within eight weeks starting from today.

Advocate Mani said that the number of the PIL case is 49 of 2014 and was filed by advocate Yengkokpam Priyokumar.

The petitioner had submitted written statement to the Governor of the State and concerned Union Ministries urging to implement the Lok Ayukta Act in the State as in other States. Later, he filed a PIL in the High Court of Manipur, he said.

According to advocate Mani, the Lok Pal or Lok Ayukta Bill before it became an act was implemented from January 6, 2014 in most of the States. The State government had announced that the act has been implemented in the State from October 3 of the same year.

However, a competent Chairperson and two Members who are much needed to effectively implement the act have not been appointed so far.

He envisaged that people of the State will be benefitted from the implementation of the Lok Ayukta Act.
