The Lokpal Bill is unlikely to be the silver bullet to end corruption. It could, however, become a powerful weapon to aid the common man's battle against the scourge of our times. These were the conclusions of an India Today roundtable on August 29 in Delhi. The eminent panel comprised a sociologist, legal luminaries, a former bureaucrat and social activists besides core members of Team Anna. They sat down to discuss the issue just 48 hours after Anna Hazare called off his fast. In the words of a panelist, everybody was united in concern over corruption but divided on how to tackle it.

One bill, many voices
Experts, including Team Anna's representatives, attended India Today Roundtable conference on Lokpal bill and corruption. There was no unanimity on the bill but all agreed that corruption needed to be tackled urgently.
