Lok Satta tribute to Shekawat

The Lok Satta Party today expressed profound grief over the death of former Vice President of India Bhairon Singh Shekawat.

A self-made leader, Mr. Shekawat will go down in history for scripting the ‘Antyodaya’ scheme to provide food security to the poorest of the poor, said party leaders Katari Srinivsa Rao and V. Laxman Balaji. The pro-farmer leader played a key role in the era of coalition Governments in the country, they added.
