Lokapal panel talks break down

The meeting of joint drafting committee on the Lokpal Bill came to a close today with Union HRD minister Kapil Sibal telling the media that the draft of the Lokpal Bill would be out by June 30.
The draft will be sent to the Cabinet; it will have a government version as well as that of civil society members, Sibal said.
Sibal said some issues that were addressed in the meeting are still contentious as no consensus had been reached. The next meeting will be on June 20 and 21.
