Abdul Kalam gives thumbs down to Lokpal

Former President APJ Abdul Kalam expressed doubt on the version that a strong lokpal bill will completely eradicate corruption from the society.

"The only thing Lokpal can do is to put the people who were found guilty in jails. This will lead to the full occupancy of the prisons all our the country. But, corruption will not end," Kalam opined, during his interaction with children at an event. Kalam suggested the children to make their homes corruption-free by preventing their family members from taking or giving bribes. "If everyone does it, then the corruption will be washed away in no time," he asserted.

When the media quizzed him to react on the Presidential poll, Kalam said 'wait and watch'. He was tight-lipped when asked whether he is interested to serve another five years as the president of the
country.
