Lokpal Rahul Gandhi addresses Parliamen
All India Congress Committee (AICC) general secretary Rahul Gandhi, Friday, addressed the Parliament on Lokpal logjam during Zero Hour.
Addressing, the Lok Sabha, the Gandhi scion said, “the fight against corruption needs a strong political will.”

Lokpal: Rahul Gandhi addresses Parliament
Priyanka Gandhi had also reached the Parliament ahead of Rahul’s address.
Earlier in the day, AICC general secretary held a 30-minute meeting with Prime Minister Manmohan Singh at 7, Race Course Road.
The duo reportedly discussed the Lokpal issue.
The government today is expected to hold a comprehensive debate on all versions of the Lokpal Bill draft prepared by various factions in Parliament.
Rahul had said yesterday that he was concerned over the logjam in the wake of Hazare’s agitation against corruption.
“Of course I am concerned,” he had said when asked whether he is concerned about the standoff on the Lokpal issue and Hazare’s refusal to end the fast.
