Ram Vilas Paswan took a stand towards the raging controversy saying "Lokpal bill must cater to national interest". He is another opposition leader who has stressed on the need to bring on a Bill which would cater to the Nation's interest rather than Individual.
The previously proposed Bill by the Govt. in Lok Sabha was immediately rejected by Team Anna as it was tailor made to cater the needs of the Ruling Party and a far cry from the original draft. The Parliament has been torn on the issue of which bill can cater the public interest, with neither side willing to back an inch.
In midst of all this the Anna Hazare's fast enters the Day 9 in his bid to force the Govt. to accept and pass the Jan Lokpal bill which is the original Bill intended to cater everyone and spare no one from its scrutiny.

South Eastern Railway (SER) has imposed a fine of Rs 12 lakh on Brandavan Food Products, the private caterer engaged by it to serve meals on the Howrah-Mumbai Gitanjali Express.
The errant caterer's men had assaulted four passengers of Howrah-bound Gitanjali Express on July 25, South Eastern railway officials said. The caterer has also been in news lately after its cook was hauled up for serving undercooked chicken.
The caterer hired for The Gitanjali Express also had its catering unit charged for two other complaints against them. While SER has filed charges against the five accused, who were arrested in Kharagpur and are now out of bail, nobody seems certain whether action will be taken against the caterer.
This fine amount is highest-ever among all the fines imposed on contract based private caterer of the Indian Railways," the officials said.
