A copy of the Lokpal Bill burns during a protest on the outskirts of New Delhi on August 4, 2011. The Indian government on August 4 introduced a new anti-corruption bill in parliament, which activists have panned for exempting the prime minister from the scrutiny of a powerful new ombudsman. The final version of the bill has been strongly criticised by civil society activists, who were allowed to participate in the drafting process but complained that their views were marginalised.
