Modi : New Lokayukta Bill introduced New Lokayukta Bill introduced in Gujarat Assembly The Narendra Modi government on Tuesday introduced a bill in the Gujarat Assembly which curtails the 'primacy' of the Chief Justice of the state High Court and the Governor in the matter of appointment of the Lokayukta.
