520			_aThe issue of corruption in public life has been seen across countries for a long time. India is also not immune from the problem of corruption. It is one of the most important challenges in the way to achieve effective governance. Thus, the need for an institution of the Ombudsman, especially at the national level to fight against corruption, has been debated and demanded. However, it is only in the second decade of the 21st century that the legislation for establishing an Ombudsman in the form of Lokpal came into effect. Although Lokpal in India is still in the initial stage of its existence, it is important to analyse its functioning to know its effectiveness and prospects. Thus, this article tries to analyse the functioning of Lokpal of India from its inception till the present. – Reproduced https://journals.sagepub.com/doi/full/10.1177/00195561231204936
