Soon after winning the confidence vote in the Delhi Assembly, Kejriwal had termed the passage of the Jan Lokpal Bill as the "most important issue" on the agenda of his government.
"Jan Lokpal Bill is the most important issue on our agenda," he had told reporters. Jan Lokpal bill is AAP's version of the Lokpal, or the anti-corruption ombudsman.
Kejriwal has already announced decisions on reducing water and power tariffs which he had promised before assembly election.
Responding to a query on Lokayukta, Kejriwal said the an anti-corruption ombudsman will be a totally independent body and even the Chief Minister office will have no influence over it.
"At present, the anti-corruption branch is with Delhi police. This branch will be transferred to Lokayukta," Kejriwal said, adding this step is important as otherwise any corruption against the state head will not be investigated properly.
