Prakash Rai hints at forming a Political alternative
Mangaluru : People have seen Congress, JDS, BJP or CPIM during the last 70 years and they are disillusioned with them and feel that none of the mainstream parties are true to people. People know what truth is, what Dharma is, right or wrong. They are looking for a new young leader. I am in touch with likeminded people to complement the efforts for a new political alternative, Prakash Rai said in a news conference
Instead of parties with ‘ High command culture, regional leaders should emerge. The leaders should articulate the aspirations of the local people. Several people have joined hands with me in this endeavor. In the next few months I will hold discussions with like-minded people towards this and initiate a new peoples movement, he said.
'BJP people are frustrated by my straight and sharp questioning. They may even throw dung on me, intelligence reports have cautioned me in this regard. I am least bothered about these tactics. Anyway,they throw what is in their head..!’ He sarcastically said.
Let the Truth be known. If you read VB and like VB, please be a VB Supporter and Help us deliver the Truth to one and all.
