Lok Satta, AAP Alliance To Fight GHMC Elections

The Telangana Lok Satta Party & the Telangana Aam Aadmi Front on Monday joined forces for the upcoming GHMC elections.

Addressing the media today, Telangana Lok Satta Party general secretary Paduri Srinivas Reddy said that democracy had become the preserve of a few families or people's representatives, and that there was an urgent need to pave the way for real democracy - of the people, by the people and for the people.

To achieve this, the Telangana Lok Satta Party and the Telangana Aam Aadmi Front had joined hands, he said.

"In the upcoming GHMC elections, it will be our endeavour to field candidates approved by 100 local ward voters unlike in other Parties where aspiring candidates have to go around the Party offices lobbying, and investing money and muscle power into the elections with the ulterior motives of usurping power to amass wealth. Any decent person with values and ethics will never join politics in such an environment. In the interests of the society and democracy, people can only be protected and nurtured by good intentioned selfless, service-minded people," he added.

Reddy said that they would be releasing Party posters for information to the people and also to seek well-intentioned prospective candidates and supporters.

"Politics have to change for the better, and our Party stands for that. Very soon we will be releasing our manifesto as well as our implementation methodology, which will be thought-provoking and revolutionary," he added.
