Loksatta (party)
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Lok Satta Party was launched on October 2nd 2006. Lok Satta, the NGO, accomplished a great deal in its nine years of existence.But the changes required to really transform India are possible only when the 'powers that be' have the will to implement the logical and practical solutions proposed.Unfortunately,they either don't want to or cannot afford to. Hence arose the need to form a political party of the people
Lok Satta is also a name of a group formed by Dr. Jayaprakash Narayan, renowned People's activist from Andhra Pradesh,India. Recently the group declared to form a political party and contest in upcoming elections.Though the movement is initially started in Andhra Pradesh, Later it spread across the country.He firmly believes that the DEMOCRACY is for the people and by the people.
