Mangalore: Enthusiastic response to AAP membership drive in city

Media Release

Mangalore, Jan 12: People of different age groups and different walks of life thronged to BEM High School here on Sunday January 12 to register themselves as the members of the Aam Aadmi Party during its membership drive programme.

In all, as many as 410 new members were registered in the two-hour drive, while more than 700 people participated in the informal gathering that supplemented the drive.

The new members were drawn from diverse sections of the society including professionals, students, and retired personnel, which included sizeable number of women. The number of senior citizens out-numbered the other sections of people present.

The gathering stressed the need for strengthening the party at the grassroots level and look forward to field a strong candidate in the forthcoming Lok Sabha elections from the Mangalore constituency.

    Mr. Anna Hazareji weakened his own movement by parting ways with Mr. Arvind Kejriwal. He should have supported and guided Mr. Kejriwal without joining AAP. He should have followed the example of his predecessor, the late Mr. Jay Prakash Narayan who led the revolution against corruption and dictatorship in the 70s that resulted in the formation and victory of the Janatha Party. Being out of party politics he supported the then newly formed party.

    A great gesture by Mr. MICHAEL D SOUZA, DUBAI, U.A.E. Feels like this time AAP is going to sweep the polls and will make a big difference in the way both old parties were cheating and making use of people's trust. Wishing all the very best to AAP.

    Anna Hazare is a liar!
    When Baba Randev joined Anna in his protest for Lokpal,I knew it back then that you couldn't trust Anna any more.
    We all know why there are so many babas in India.Ramdev's trust has thousands of crores!
    Ramdev,Anna Hazare,RSS all are same.

    Anna Hazare was deployed by BJP to bring Congress down.I think Kejriwal realized this and broke up with Anna.

    Where was Anna all these days?After Kejriwal became CM,all of a sudden he comes back into the limelight and asks for Lokpal bill to be passed.And lo and behold,we get a weak Lokpal,courtesy of backroom dealings between Anna,BJP and Congress.
    No problem for political parties now,weak Lokpal..not to worry.

    Anna Hazare has been pulling the wool over our eyes all these days.
    Finally, he showed his true colours by openly supporting BJP now.
    He was,is and always will be RSS stooge!

    AAP DK, I Hve a few questions to Mr. Kejriwal, I hope AAP DK Can clarify these,
    1)The recent statement by Mr. Prshanth Bhushan regarding Kashmir issue ,I know Mr. Kejriwal not supported that statement, but the person who has the kind of thoughts how can continue in this party?Y no action on Mr. Bhushan.
    2)Kejriwal used to say his party always different from other corrupt parties and its a common mans party. Y he is allowing or inviting leaders from other parties?Is there any scarcity of leaders in aam admi.Don't he think that other party leaders who are joining AAP are power hungry.
    3)Y there is no action against Sheel Dixith.Eventhough Mr. Kejriwal had lot of proof of her corruptions?

    Anna Hazare had all possibilities to introduce jan lockpal bill.He converted the entire village Ralegav site in his native as a model village,then he had every potential to transform this nation.It was unfortunate that Anna kept himself away from the political party.AAP with the support of Congress at Delhi may struggle to end corruption because national level parties like Cong & BJP are totally corrupt.If we look at the west every nation progressed after strong revolution.Still we do not have that kind of leader or revolt.This country will prosper only with two tools.They are 100% literacy and non corruption.Anyway good luck to AAP.

    One thing is sure, AAP entry into politics will finish congress. One can notice in Daiji forum itself. Many Congress supporters changed their loyalty to AAP. Hardly you can find any Modi supporter doing so. Many so called intellectuals who joined AAP recently are not from BJP. Many people who fought elections earlier independently and lost like capt Gopinath etc are trying their luck this time with AAP tag. The mood of the nation is against congress. Since AAP is having in direct association with congress, both AAP and congress will be doomed in 2014 elections!

    AAP which is new party in indian politics is of course based on some principal and morality. Instead of blind criticizing we should appreciate its positive and people welfare action. So far it has done some good work for middle class and poor people.Now the other national parties also following their footsteps. I am happy that they had started the membership drive and I hope that like minded people will join it and work together to uplift the society and the nation from communal disharmony and corruption.

    Its only the rich getting richer .
    yes thru their hard work and merit, but not by LOOTING or cheating the poor janatah.
    so, now you join AAP and add to the strength and be the change -be a model.
    Let us all together to build a strong- powerful -clean India. for our generations to come.

    Even here in Germany the spectacular rise of the AAP in Indian politics has garnered much attention. Quality newspapers like Die Frankfurter Allgemeine Zeitung, Die Süddeutsche Zeitung , Die Welt, reported on the AAP. There is no doubt, the AAP has infused new hope in the democratic process, not just in Delhi but in other regions of India and across South Asia. The AAP has focussed largely on specific livelihood issues that are of concern to the entire population, like corruption, electricity and water prices. The AAP is trying to put together a multi-class compact and is a strong defender of decentralized democracy.
    Arvind Kejriwal has demonstrated great humility up to now. He acknowledged that the AAP did not have the answers to all questions. Rather than making grand promises, he said that he would try to tackle smaller matters first, such as ending corruption in government offices.
    No one knows how successful the AAP will be in the general elections, it is clear that the AAP has succeeded in capturing hearts and minds of the common man.
    And I am very pleased that people of different age groups and different walks of life thronged to BEM High School here on Sunday, January 12 to register themselves as the members of the Aam Aadmi Party during its membership drive programme.
    410 new members were registered.
    The AAP will change and influence the political landscape in India in a very positive way and the party is supported by people from all walks of life.

    "Broom" held by "Hand". These people have no rights to talk about corruption after tying up with the most corrupt party. All they are doing is gimmicks & hardly any governance.What happened to the CWG scam ?. Kejri had 370 page proof against sheila. Just wondering where all these disappeared. This party is just another congress proxy, fighting on behalf of a totally discredited party. Kejri has pulled of a "Fraud of the century". This is very dangerous because he has taken people's hopes for a ride.The recent Janta Durbar where the focus was only on publicity than any real concern for the people...

    Power and money makes everybody corrupt. AAP is formed by people like us only. If AAP had any good intentions, they could have very well spent the millions they collected on social service and charity. Instead, they decided to get the power. It is just time that will make all those who support AAP to understand that it is becoming a party just like any other political party in India which is bound to be corrupt for survival. Just imagine how much they have spent on the elections so far.
