Aiming to stitch an alliance of non-BJP
parties to oust the NDA major from power and introduce “politics of
socialism”, supporters of rebel JD(U) leader Sharad Yadav will formally
launch their party Loktantrik Janata Dal (LJD) on Friday May 18,2018
The party is being formed with Yadav as its “mentor”, a leader of the rebel group Arun Srivastava told
The party aims to introduce a new kind of politics,” he said. Srivastava said the LJD is being floated as the matter relating to “which is the original JD(U)” is pending before court. After the Nitish Kumar-headed JD(U) decided to switch to the NDA fold last year, a faction of the party had opposed. The faction had approached the Election Commission, contending “it was the real JD(U) and not the one led by Kumar”.
“We are politicians and needed a party to contest elections. Since the matter is pending before the court, we decided to float the party. We will make efforts to bring all the anti-BJP parties together ahead of the 2019 Lok Sabha polls to oust the party which is posing threat to democracy,” Srivastava said. He said Yadav has already been making efforts to bring non-BJP parties on a common platform through his ‘Preserve Composite Culture’ campaign
