The document compares and contrasts the key differences between the government's draft Lokpal bill and the civil society draft bill. Some of the major differences highlighted include: selection and composition of the Lokpal members and search committee; accountability and independence of the Lokpal; jurisdiction and scope of corruption covered; powers to investigate complaints and tap phones; whistleblower protection; and inclusion of the prime minister. The civil society draft provides for a more independent and effective anti-corruption body compared to the government's draft which is seen as keeping control over the Lokpal and potentially making it a "puppet in the government's hands."
