A top committee including Prime Minister Narendra Modi and the Chief Justice of India, meets today on the appointment of an anti-corruption Lokpal but the main opposition Congress has refused to be a part of it, objecting to "special invitee" status in the meeting. "A more apt and statesman-like conduct is expected from the prime minister of the country," Congress leader Mallikarjun Kharge has written in a sharp letter to PM Modi, refusing the invitation.
