Mangalore, Jan 2: In view of the forthcoming 2014 general elections, the district unit of Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) has requested the general public to give their suggestions and help the party to formulate a broad manifesto for the Mangalore Lok Sabha Constituency.
Speaking at a press conference here on Thursday, AAP district convenor Dharmendra said that the party would organise a public membership drive at BEM High School, Car Street on January 12, where interested individuals from across the district could attend and join the party. AAP state convenor Siddharth Sharma will be present, he said.
He said that the citizens of the district could send their views and suggest action plans with regard to infrastructure, healthcare, education, trade, commerce and industry. Suggestions can be sent to [email protected] which will be consolidated to frame the manifesto specifically to the district. This is an exercise which is first of its kind in the constituency and will help the party to understand the needs and aspirations of the people of the coastal region, he said.
The district spokesperson S Nandagopal said that the DK unit of AAP would take up serious issues bothering the citizens of the district and work out strategies to address issues such as denial of gas connections due to lack of Aadhar card, security of women including demand for CBI inquiry in Soujanya rape and murder case, the controversial Yettinahole project, constitution of ward committees, KUDCEMP and Niddodi power plant.
The party is committed to fight corruption and mal-administration which are the basic tenets of the party and will chalk out a comprehensive action plan to sweep the prevalent corruption in different Government offices, the AAP said in a press statement.
Joint convenor Harsha Samrajya and joint secretary Ajay Kumar were present.
