Maharashtra set to implement new Lokayukta Act after Centre-directed amendments
Dec 12, 2025
After a delay of nearly two years, Maharashtra is finally set to implement its new Lokayukta Act, following the State Legislature's approval of amendments suggested by the Central Government. The move comes in response to consistent demands from veteran social activist Anna Hazare, who had announced an indefinite fast from 31 January 2026 if the Act was not brought into force.
