Dr. Ambedkar behind Voting right to all: JP

It was because of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar the Constitution conferred the right to vote to on every eligible Indian without any discrimination based on caste, class and religion, said Lok Satta Party President Dr. Jayaprakash Narayan here today..

Addressing a gathering after garlanding the statue of Dr. Ambedkar at Moosapet Y Junction, Dr. JP appealed to people to utilize their vote by electing candidates with credibility. They should put an end to dynastic and exploitative politics by exercising their franchise wisely. Traditional political parties merely observed the birth and death anniversaries of the great leader without following him in practice, unlike the Lok Satta which lived up to his ideals.

Movie Director Tammareddy Bharadwaja, Lok Satta Party leader Srinivasan and others took part in the function.

At 10-00 a.m. Lok Satta contestants including Dr. JP and activists all over the State blew whistle, the party’s election symbol, to remind people of the need to vote for the Lok Satta.
