The journey of the Lokpal institution in India began with the introduction of the first Lokpal Bill in the Parliament.

This legislative effort aimed to establish an ombudsman-like body to address grievances against public administration and combat corruption.
Historical Context: Although introduced in 1968, the bill underwent several revisions and faced multiple reintroductions before the Lokpal Act was finally enacted much later.
Therefore, the correct year for the introduction of the first Lokpal Bill is 1968.
