See latest state of internal lokpal here
In October last year, Kejrival had announced that an internal lokpal of the APP(lokpal that will investigate against irregularities in the party) consisting of three-member panel of retired judges headed by Justice AP Shah would investigate charges of impropriety against its members including Prashant Bhushan, Anjali Damania and Mayank Gandhi.
Apart from Shah Justice BH Marlapalle (retd) of Bombay high court and Justice Jaspal Singh (retd) of Delhi high court were members of the internal lokpal of the APP.
Another lokpal termed as 'National lokpal' for the party is set up having Justice Bhagwati Prasad(Retd. chief justice of Jharkhand HC ) and former Navy chief Admiral L Ramdas
Kejriwal however on Friday(Feb ,2 2013) said the panel could not begin work due to paucity of time. He also said that according to the code devised by their internal lokpal, it would not take suo moto cases but only investigate cases referred by a complainant. The internal lokpal has also decided to pursue cases of national executive members only.
This means that at present, internal lokpal will only be looking at case of Mayank Gandhi only against whom allegations have been raised . He added that a report on Gandhi would be made public in less than two months.
However Kejrival said that there is no complainant against Prashant Bhushan so he will not be investigated. Also he said that Damania is a member of the state unit so she can be investigated by the lokpal's state unit.
Editor's View: First they announced probe against all the three i.e Bhushan, Mayank and Damania. Now the check-list is reduced to just one! Well honestly it was not a decent thing to be done by APP. They should change this decision.
