ANALYSIS While many of the parties like BJP, CPM and Trinamool are opposing Chapter 3 from lokpal which is imposing Center's Lokayukta bill on states saying that Lokayukta bill prepared by states will go in vein if center's Lokayukta bill is imposed on them. .{ Lokayukta in simple words is state-level Lokpal/corruption watchdog}
But this opposition has almost shadowed following poor facts about State Lokayuktas Bills
Only Uttrakhand have reasonable Lokyukta.
After all this opposition (who form government in states) are trying to defend such flawed and weak sate made lokayukta bills.
Its true that Feudal system should be respected but using it to defend flaws and corruption is quite different.This shows state government doesn't want to take pains to renew their flawed lokayukta bills or to set up new lokayuktas
This decision of making lokayukta a state defined creation is wrong as it will make Lokayukta different in every state as well as will make it vulnerable to become a state based weak bill leading to difficult usage of bill in multi-state corruption cases|

But this opposition has almost shadowed following poor facts about State Lokayuktas Bills
- Out of 28 states only 19 have Lokayukta instituted.
- Of 19 merely 3 lokayukta are OK(not even good)
- Most of the state lokayukta bills can't investigate Governer, Chef Minister and legislatures.
- Some lokayuktas like of Andhara Pradesh have been restricted to look into Government's procedural lapses and delays
- Recommendations made by institution are not accepted actively.
- In some states even Lokayuktas (investigators) are not appointed
- In W.Bengal the lokayukta only have two group D people as staff!
- In Karnataka, no one is holding the post
- Gujrat was not appointed with Lokayukta for eight years from 2003 until in 2011 Kamla Beniwal appointed issed an ouder
- In Rajasthan, lokayukta don't have investigation agency of its own
Only Uttrakhand have reasonable Lokyukta.
