From the President's Desk
Welcome to all of you, concerned citizens of India, who are engaged, in a big or small way, in the Movement. Let me congratulate you for taking the first step to getting involved in changing the face of Indian politics. Since Lok Paritran's second Anniversary on the 18th of November we have entered a new phase of our existence. We have taken Narendra Modi head-on in Ahmedabad and consolidated our organization and our presence in Gujarat. Our State organizations have been engaged in a flurry of activity, among which I would like to name Karnataka, New Delhi, Rajasthan and Tamil Nadu. And I am happy to see that expansion has led to more leaders coming to the forefront.
The next two years leading up to the Lok Sabha elections are crucial. In that period as many as ten states are scheduled to have their Assembly elections. We are working day and night, and we will strike hard in every corner of the nation. I urge each and every one of you to participate in the Movement in whatever capacity you can so that we can all see a brighter future for our country.
-- Shri. Chandrashekhar

Persistence overcomes political machinations: LP Karnataka President files nomination successfully
Submitted by admin on Thu, 04/24/2008 - 18:08.The Karnataka State President of Lok Paritran, Mr. B.T. Naganna, faced an unusual problem when he went to file his nomination papers on Monday, the 21st of April. The officer in charge claimed that there was no party called Lok Paritran in his list of registered parties. This is all the more strange because three other candidates of Lok Paritran had already filed their nominations successfully.
