Swaraj Abhiyan To Launch Political Party By Oct 2,2016

Swaraj Abhiyan leaders Yogendra Yadav and Prashant Bhushan announce the launch of a political party by October 2,2016 to provide an "alternative political vehicle" as they hit out at AAP.

The new outfit will be not have a "supremo" culture and ensure transparency, the leaders said.

The political party will be launched by October 2 and a committee has been formed for this purpose, Yadav said. "We were never secretive about going political.

A decision to launch a political party was taken with nearly 93 per cent of the delegates, at a national convention of Swaraj Abhiyan, overwhelming supporting it.

Of the 433 delegates, 405 voted in favour of launching the party," he said. Yogendra Yadav, however, clarified that Swaraj Abhiyan will continue to exist even after the new political party is launched.

 Although the decision to launch a party was taken by Swaraj Abhiyan delegates, the two will function independently
