Bill meant to loot public

Chandigarh Tribune
Chandigarh, August 1: The Office of Profit Bill passed by Parliament is a "seal of Parliament on looting of the public exchequer by MPs and MLAs," said Mr Satya Pal Jain, former member of Parliament, while talking to The Tribune here today.
Mr Jain said the Bill passed was a gross violation of the Constitution. "We appeal to the President of India to look into the matter and seek the opinion of the Supreme Court. In case the Bill gets his approval, the legal cell of the BJP will examine the matter and might also approach the court," he said.
MPs and MLAs should not be allowed to hold any office except those concerned with parliamentary business, he added
