Demjson does your work but it is extremely slow and i mean very slow compare to simplejson. I don't recommend it for production environment.
ast.literal_eval() and yaml also doesn't work on all json so you need a more stable solution like simplejson.
If you tweak simplejson a little bit then it can do your work.
I myself have done it and sharing this code.
I am telling it in 2 points
1) Download simplejson from github and add it to your project.
2) Now simplejson has decoder.py python file. Replace that file code with this code

*encoding* determines the encoding used to interpret any
:class:`str` objects decoded by this instance (``'utf-8'`` by
default). It has no effect when decoding :class:`unicode` objects.
Note that currently only encodings that are a superset of ASCII work,
strings of other encodings should be passed in as :class:`unicode`.
*object_hook*, if specified, will be called with the result of every
JSON object decoded and its return value will be used in place of the
given :class:`dict`. This can be used to provide custom
deserializations (e.g. to support JSON-RPC class hinting).
*object_pairs_hook* is an optional function that will be called with
the result of any object literal decode with an ordered list of pairs.
The return value of *object_pairs_hook* will be used instead of the
:class:`dict`. This feature can be used to implement custom decoders
that rely on the order that the key and value pairs are decoded (for
example, :func:`collections.OrderedDict` will remember the order of
insertion). If *object_hook* is also defined, the *object_pairs_hook*
takes priority.
*parse_float*, if specified, will be called with the string of every
JSON float to be decoded. By default, this is equivalent to
``float(num_str)``. This can be used to use another datatype or parser
for JSON floats (e.g. :class:`decimal.Decimal`).
*parse_int*, if specified, will be called with the string of every
JSON int to be decoded. By default, this is equivalent to
``int(num_str)``. This can be used to use another datatype or parser
for JSON integers (e.g. :class:`float`).
*parse_constant*, if specified, will be called with one of the
following strings: ``'-Infinity'``, ``'Infinity'``, ``'NaN'``. This
can be used to raise an exception if invalid JSON numbers are
encountered.
*strict* controls the parser's behavior when it encounters an
invalid control character in a string. The default setting of
``True`` means that unescaped control characters are parse errors, if
``False`` then control characters will be allowed in strings.

Now you are all set.
Simplejson is the fastest and stable Library i have used.
I have changed few lines of code in simplejson and now this awesome library works for
- Unquoted json keys and Single Quoted json strings and keys
I have changed python code only. So if you use C extension for speed up boost then this code will not work.
Wherever I made changes I have added Comment # Changed Code Here
I mistakenly answered previously as guest user and now I can not login to edit that answer so i posted in new thread.
