This is my third post on the topic. I wanted you all to know about this as many of you have commented asking for details.
Bharat Punarnirman Dal (BPD) have launched their website. It is by no means a comprehensive website but has the initial elements in it. There is a page about BPD and another about its Strategy.
After years of study and hands-on experience at the grassroots level it became clear to the group that without reforming the political system any attempt to reform the society or the governance will be futile. Soon it became clear that the problem is not the lack of resources but it is inefficient management of the resources. In other words in order to get a lasting and widespread solution instead of trying to solve the problems and issues themselves it is better to improve the problem solving mechanism. This problem solving mechanism or the System that governs the country is already there and has sufficient reach and resources but because of inefficiencies at every level of this system it has become ineffective. (link)
According to them they have entered the political stage with an aim to reform the political system. I think the aim is noble and hope every member of the party holds it dear.
Bharat Punarnirman Dal was founded with a belief that qualitative improvement at the topmost level will be reflected throughout the structure that lies beneath them. Thus this political organization is an attempt to fundamentally reform the political system, which produces the top level managers – the politicians, by introducing quality and dynamism at the political level so as the country is run by politicians by choice not by chance or by birth.
The website throws some light on what their strategy is.
Unfortunately politics figures no where when it comes to choosing a career option. The talent pool of the country opts for other career options with which it always remain subservient, as far as policy making is concerned, to the political echelons, which ultimately is chosen by those who have nothing else to choose.
Taking into account the sordid state of affairs as far as the existing political system is concerned, with nepotism and undemocratic structures prevalent in the existing political organizations, even if somebody wants to opt for politics as a career option, he has no choice available that he can choose and stick to with dignity. Thus in the present scenario politics has become an exclusive preserve of people either with abundance of money or with muscle power or with some political legacy. A common man with a vision for his country and a plan to implement it finds no way to enter the legislature, even if he wishes to.
This is very true. Nobody today talks about politics as a good thing to be in. If BPD can change that I think that will be an awesome thing to do. In other countries like US you will find young dynamic guys fighting elections on issues and very keen to enter politics even after graduating from Harvard, Yale or Princeton. But in India, very few will even think about it as a career.
Bharat Punarnirman Dal as an institution is meant to fill that lacuna. Knowing that competition begets quality, Bharat Punarnirman Dal is an attempt to make politics more ‘competitive’ by making it more accessible to the people. It intends to provide a platform to the people who have a vision for the country but lack the wherewithal, in terms of institutional support and electoral experience, to participate in active politics.
This is all good if done properly. Two main things in their strategy are
- Make politics accessible to people.
- Make politics a career choice for people.
I think both of these are good. I just hope they do it right and get the right message to the people.

Thanks Polite,
You are on top of this.
I think they and every organization like them need to be welcomed. The youth are getting tired and restless. We want to see an India which does not artificially divide brothers, yet has enough room for social justice to the really backward.
You are correct, most young politicians in the USA are the best from top notch schools. What is even more amazing is that the smartest kids take to politics there naturally. A quick look at the young research assistants in DC should confirm this.
Lets wish them good luck.

rc,
You are right we need to welcome such organizations and if possible support them. The first and foremost thing that they need is some publicity. Everybody needs to know that there is a party like this and they have options.
I just hope that what they say is not all talk but implementation of the same when time comes. I hope they can keep their head straight and feet grounded when they get success and taste power.
Even if they achieve the goal of attracting young talent to politics that in itself will be a big success.
January 23, 2007 at 10:55 am
I think they are missing a vital point here. The influence of student political organizations is significant and most of the politicians has made this career shift when they were fairly young.
The impetus should be on making these organizations shift their policy of reactive politics to proactive politics leaning towards social welfare. Which again is no easy task, but creating awareness in colleges and among the young should be much easier than trying to reform seasoned corrupt politicians.
And I do not think making politics a career choice for people will work in India. It should come more out of social responsibilty. But BPD’s initiatives are well-intented and I hope they are successful.
January 23, 2007 at 9:37 pm
Student politics is also associated with a political party. Like the youth congress et al. The students would need an alternate party to make that shift. I hope BPD can provide that ground.
Besides, they are not talking of reforming politicians but politics. This may not happen in next 5-10 years but if persevered with I believe it can happen.
The important thing for BPD to do would be to inculcate a culture of responsible politics in the party. In every party there are smart and good people but they can’t do much because of political compulsions. BPD will have to change that within its party. The political compulsions will always be there but there should be a willingness to take a political hit for over all good.
January 24, 2007 at 10:13 am
As per the present scenario, a political party cannot survive without money and muscle power. And generally in colleges the big political parties conspire to wipe out small emerging parties like BPD unless they join in one of these groups.
It is a big challenge indeed.
January 29, 2007 at 4:20 pm
hi, as far as i think, our country as of now needs people whio r ready to fight for the corruption and also erady to uproot it by any means…like the rdb theme, but i’d always prefer to do things undercover..well as of now u jus can’t sit and shout and protest, u need to fight the evil…like someone said, the only thing needed for evil to succeed is for the good to do nothing,…believe me, if good has to succeed, it has to give a lots….

This Ajit Shukla is a vice-president of Lok Paritran party, right?
Did he split from that arty and started a new one on the same lines?
What made him to do that?
I am really concerned and worried.
February 8, 2007 at 3:26 am
Hari,
Yes Ajit Shukla was one of the founders of Lok Paritran Party. He split from the original party because there were serious ideological differences. It was alleged that one of the founders was very autocratic and he wanted to establish a Hindu Raj in the country. I think it is a good think that BPD split from LP if the reasons given for the split are true.

Hi all
I really appreciate the initiatives of BPD to fight the root cause of every problem in our country. I have great faith in youth power. I strongly feel that only writing these 2 lines for the support of their initiatives wont make much good. So we should tell every body we know about this party and get support for them.
Regards.

try to make education the biggest issue, being in politics or out of politics. bad politician or politics is result of distorted version of education system. do your level best-honestly. if you need me i am available to you in UP assembly election.

March 8, 2007 at 1:38 pm
i have a reason to talk about making education the biggest issue. you can see children are always a soft target in all the cases. in patna when small kids were kidnapped, whole country noticed as they started non-violent constructive protest like prayer, fasting, tiffin boycott etc. a child is not only a future but present also. treat them well, grow them well to have bright present and future.

Please clarify the reasons for the split. People are confused and disappointed. reapted splits in Lok Paritran is sad.We welcome the formation of BPD. We have met Mr.Ajit Shukla last year, he seems to be a genuine person as compared to other leaders of LP.
We are hearing lot of rumours from different sources. We would like to hear fom Mr.Shukla and Mr.Ravikishore about the split of LP.
Failure to do so will result in failure of this Youth Movement.Credibility of Youth Politicians and IITians are at stake.
Please clarify soon.
March 20, 2007 at 6:00 pm
Being a former IITian and Patriotic Indian , I request Lok Paritran and Bharat Punarnirman Dal to reunite and merge to form a formidable force in coming elections.Its best they join Bharat Uday Mission , RSS , BJP , VHP , Shiv Sena , Hindustani Manch , Hindu Munnani ,Hindu Makkal Katchi , ABVP , Vidyarthi Sena , Brahmin Mahasabha , Hindu Mahasabha and all other Patriotic Organisations.
United we can fight the enemies of Nation other our Great Country will be destoyed by Pakistani Jehad one day…………
Please don’t fight and divide , You are the hope for Youth in India……
I love my India
March 20, 2007 at 7:08 pm
RSS BJP Munnani Shiv Sena… Oh… a sure recipe for Nazi holocaust. God save such mad patriots.
What is Bharat ? Did it ever exist before 19th century ?
March 21, 2007 at 12:33 am
Being a Brahmin myself , I realise that its duty of every Brahmin to lead Hindus for a revolution.
Only Brahmins can save India.We have to support Hindutva and vote for Hindutva supporter parties.
March 21, 2007 at 12:35 am
Lord Jesus told to forgive your enemies.I think Mr.ajit shukla should forgive LP Leaders and reunite with Lp to serve India.
We all Indians are one.
March 21, 2007 at 2:37 am
gr8, i am coming india.
March 21, 2007 at 10:03 pm
It is amazing to see you easily it is to bring caste in the equation. Look at Saroj,
“Only Brahmins can save India”
What a pathetic thought stream!
March 22, 2007 at 1:00 pm
Goodnews !
Top Leaders of Bharat Punarnirman Dal and Lok Paritran have declared that they are against reservations to SC , ST , BC , OBC , MBC , Dalits and as a result the Youth Organisation ” Youth For Equality ” have announced their support for these IIT parties in coming Uttar Pradesh Elections.
Youth for Equality has 25,000 regular members , they have presence in 1300 cities and support of 20 lakh Indians atleast.
We are sure that now BPD and LP will win good number of seats in UP coming election.
I urge all students and patriots to come out and support these young guys who have left their lucrative careers in US and came here to save India from these corrupt politicians.
Spread the world and support Youth Revolution.

Lok Paritran Founder Tanmay accuses BPD Founder Ajit Shukla as Conspirator responsible for Split in LP , he also told media that founders of BPD have hacked Lok Paritrana Orkut Communities ???
New Delhi: It was a dream that was realised to bring about a “positive” change in Indian polity.
But a group of IITians, it seems, weren’t equipped enough to carry forward the burden of expectations.
Lok Paritran, the political party formed by a group of ex-IITians in 2005 witnessed a vertical split just ahead of the Uttar Pradesh Assembly polls.
The breakaway faction is called Bharat Punarnirman Dal (BPD) and will take on Lok Paritran head on in the UP poll field.
The LPP has said the split is unfortunate and has alleged political conspiracy. He also said BPD - formed by some ex-IIT Kanpur students - was “misguiding media and innocent party supporters.”
The party also alleged that BPD working committee has illegitimately held the ownership of LPP’s online community on Orkut.
However, party officials maintain the party will go and contest UP polls and is finalising candidates of Lucknow and Allahabad in next few days.
“We will contest the elections in the fifth, sixth and seventh phases in UP despite contemptuous act of spreading rumours against the party by some former party members, who have formed BPD,” national president L P Tanmay Rajpurohit was quoted as saying.
LPP was founded in 2005 and became a registered political party in February 2006 and enjoyed had got a tremendous response in Tamil Nadu Assembly elections.
April 10, 2007 at 6:39 pm
It was sad to watch the allegations made by Lok Paritarn Founder Tanmay Raiporohit in his latest CNN IBN interview.
These type of allegations by opponents will harm the future prospects of BPD in UP and other parts of India.
Which is the true IITian party ??
Inspite of standing against the corrupt Politicians like Lalu , Mulayam , Mayawati , These so called intellectual politicians of Lok Paritrana are harming each other.
They have created hope in young generation of Urban India , Now they are hurting the emotions of supporters.
Its sad to see that the party ( LP ) which created a revolution in Indian blogosphere is the same which is responsible for splits in this Youth Movement.

Dear Members, our supporters and all of you who have voted for our candidates in the polls on May 10th….
The founders of Lok Paritran, who form the National Committee, held a PressConference on Monday and made allegations on Mr. B.T.Naganna. Almost all the newspapers have carried the details of this press note in their editions on Tuesday and the same has also been put up on the website of the party.
Mr. B.T.Naganna was our State President until he was removed from the post yesterday as per the announcement in the Press Conference. He was also our candidate from KRPuram constituency.
*All the allegations made by the National committee are baseless and totally false.
*We are now in the process of filing our case on the founders for defamation and damages. The details will be made available to all of you as soon as we actually file the case in the court of law.
The charge that Mr. Naganna attacked Tanmay is also false - in fact, Tanmay and his team organised a pre-meditated attack on Naganna at around 9.30pm on the 10th evening, after we all dispersed from the Press Club around 8.30pm.
The reason for the attack on Naganna is extremely shocking and shameful - but we want all our people to know the truth, however bitter it may be….
About 10 days ago, when all our candidates had started their Election campaigns in full earnest, the National General Secretary, Tanmay Rajpurohit, asked two of our candidates to adjust about Rs. 6 lakhs to 7 lakhs of expenses on behalf of candidates from one of the largest National political party. Both our candidates refused to do so.
Tanmay’s reasoning for this was that as none of our candidates were going to show more than Rs. 2 lakhs as the poll expenses, this would be very `helpful’ to our party.
This matter was discussed between a few select members and other candidates and was decided that we would refuse to do this `adjustment’ and that the National committee would be confronted with this issue immediately after the polling.
Tanmay and their team were also pressurizing our (ex) State Treasurer - Mr. Shashidhar Alabur, to submit the State unit’s accounts on the 5th of May itself. He said it would not be possible because of lack of time and when he demanded to see the accounts of the National unit, his request was refused by Tanmay saying that he had no right to scrutinize their accounts.
Thereafter, on the night of May 5th, around 1am, Tanmay and his team along with about 15 others came in 3 vehicles to his house and started banging on the gate of his house. Fearing that some untoward incident may happen, he did not venture out and called the police. Tanmay and his team left the premises before the police arrived. However, a formal complaint was not lodged as this could be extremely embarrassing for our candidates if this news leaked out to the press while the actual polling date was just 5 days away.
All candidates and core members were supposed to meet in the party office at 6pm on 10th evening after the polling concluded and take the National team to task on the above and many other such matters like a) they never joined any candidates’ campaigns even though they had supposedly more than 15 party members who had come down from Delhi/Rajasthan to help the candidates, b) there was absolutely no help in terms of funds for the State unit or the candidates, c) they were creating more problems for the candidates than helping them out by calling them for meetings at odd hours and places etc.
However, because of a bogus voting issue in one booth of one of our candidates, we all had to rush to the Chief Election Commissioner’s office where we joined the press conference in progress and then lodged our formal complaint on the bogus voting problem. Thereafter, all of us present had various discussions with the media and then dispersed around 8.30pm. A few minutes after Naganna left, Tanmay called him on his mobile and told him they wanted to have a personal discussion with him and agreed to meet near TGI Friday on Airport Road. All of them met for some time and Chandrashekhar, the National President, then asked Naganna to instruct all the candidates to ‘adjust’ Rs. 5 lakhs to 7 lakhs for another party’s candidates in our poll expenses. Naganna refused to do so and walked away.
Just as he got into his van, 4 men dressed in black, wearing black helmets with dark visors attacked him from both sides. A baseball bat was shoved in from one window which bruised Naganna in the face - but he was quick to grab the bat, get out from the other side and chase one of them with the bat. In the skirmish that followed, Naganna sustained injuries on his hands and legs also - but the thugs managed to escape in an old blue Maruti van. Tanmay & co were spotted watching all this and then they rushed to get into an auto and vanish.
When we all joined forces in the morning on Sunday and went to the Police Station to lodge a complaint, we found Tanmay & co also in the same Police station lodging a complaint on us ! Thereafter, we discovered that they had also lodged another complaint in another Police station on the events of the previous night claiming that Naganna had attacked Tanmay. And on Monday we got the news that they had conducted a press conference where they accused Naganna of various things and that the State committee has been dissolved.
In view of all these events, many statements made by Tanmay and Chandrashekhar, during the last so many meetings and even just before the nominations were filed, assume a different significance now. Remarks like ‘it is very easy to get money during elections’, ‘just pay 5000 for the nomination deposit and the rest will automatically come to you’, ‘adjusting 5 or 10 lakhs (rupees) is not a big thing during elections’ etc. etc. The fact that during the Elections in Gujarat, while the campaigns were in full swing in Gujarat, the whole team flew in from Ahmedabad to Bangalore for 2 days just to meet us and were found having a party at the Leela Palace !
May be this was due to some ‘adjustment’ ?
It is now quite obvious to us that these founders of Lok Paritran have always had these intentions of making money during the elections as the primary purpose and all that ideology etc is just eyewash.
We always felt, that, even though the founders had a horrible dress sense, were quite often rude and rough with members - we felt this was due to immaturity and that they would learn in the course of time - but we never doubted their integrity and morals. Alas, we have been proved wrong.
However, every single active member of our Bangalore unit as well as all the candidates (except Nalin Jain who contested from Gandhinagar constituency, who happens to be Tanmay’s close associate) have expressed their solidarity with Naganna and the state committee. Those of you who know us personally or have met us will know who is speaking the truth.
*We assure you all that all of us in the State committee, District committee and all the 10 candidates have been true to the ideology of Lok Paritran, are non-corrupt, are transparent in our actions and accountable for our actions totally - and will continue to be so.
* Some other facts that you all should be aware of :
Tanmay and Chandrashekhar are own brothers - but Chandrashekhar never writes Rajpurohit after his name (probably to hide this fact)
Dheeraj Kumar who is on the national committee is a cousin of Tanmay.
Santanagopalan and Srikant Chakravarti - who are also on the National committee are cousins of Tanmay.
So, the national committee is a family affair now.
(That is transparency for all of us !)
The three or four of the other founders who were with Tanmay when the party was founded have all left (or were forced to leave).
None of the National team answers their phones on Tuesday !!! (Seriously, we are not joking) - they did not want any of the candidates to file their nominations on Tuesday this time in Bangalore - but some did anyway. (May be they don’t teach about superstitions in IIT ?)
*What next for all of us and Lok Paritran ? *
We have decided to wait till the announcement of the poll results on May 25th before taking a final decision.
We feel this is not the end of it as the National committee has some more dirty tricks in their bag and will try and do some more damage to us in the next 10-15 days - but we will show them that they cannot get away with it anymore.
Many many sincere thanks to all of you who have supported us in our endeavors and efforts in these last 2 years. We will continue to strive for good governance and removal of corruption - and we hope your support is there for us too….
By the (ex) State Committee, (ex) District committee and our 10 candidates.

This is very unfortunate but people across the country are very happy that LP’s (Looser Party) president Chandrashekar, GS Tanmay and Shantagopalan finally got bitten in karnataka. leagal advisor Srikant Chakravarti managed to disappear with the 4 gundas hired for Naganna. This was suppose to happen in Lucnow or Mumbai but they managed to escape.
Now see who is with LP
Tamilnadu - No one. LP’s founder misbehave with them and they all are in the process of merging with BPD (Bharat punarnirman dal).
Andharapradesh - No One. They are already with BPD.
Karnataka - Only one and that is Nalin Jain. I don’t think people of karnataka will give any value to a Rajsthani.
Delhi - Sharma was taking care of Delhi unit but LP’s founders abused him and he left the party with Delhi unit.
Gujrat - No one. Molik Bhatt (LP Candidate from Maninagar) got bitten by LP’s founders and he is no more with LP.
UP - None. Two Candidates fought Assembly election under lok paritran banner but now athey are not with LP but BPD. They are finished in UP.
Maharastra - All joined BPD. No base at all for LP.
Finally, all are happy with the news that LP founders got bitten badly in Karnataka and in the process of forming another group or joining with BPD.
List of members in Lok Paritran
—————————————
1. Chandrashekar Rajpurohit – President
2. Tanmay Rajpurohit – General Secretary.
3. Shantagopalan – No post. Can say Spoon of above two.
4. Shrikant Chakravarthy – Leagal advisor.
5. Nalin Jain – Another Spoon who contested Karnataka assembly election.
All the best to LP. Please think twice before joining Looser Party (LP).

Lok Paritran Karnataka President Naganna removed after attacks on the National Committee
Submitted by admin on Mon, 05/12/2008 - 15:28. Announcement Karnataka
B.T. Naganna, who was the Karnataka State President, has been removed from all positions in the Party after he attacked the National General Secretary, Shri. Tanmay Rajpurohit, on Saturday, the 10th of May. Police complaints have been filed against Naganna and a press conference was held today to make the announcement public.
Founder and National President, Shri. Chandrashekhar, announced that certain facts had recently come to light about B.T. Naganna, the Karnataka State President of Lok Paritran, which cast doubt on the suitability of his presidency. It has been brought to our notice that Naganna has been misreporting his educational qualification, and is not the holder of a B.E. degree as he claims, since he left before completion of the degree. Further and more significantly, Naganna has been allegedly implicated in the murder of two men. Naganna was faced with the charges and not being able to provide adequate explanation, was stripped of his post in the Party on Saturday, the 10th of May. In response he violently attacked the National General Secretary, Shri. Tanmay Rajpurohit, that very night and threatened to kill him. He hurled a large stone at Shri. Tanmay Rajpurohit at his head at close range, which Shri. Rajpurohit fortunately managed to dodge. The next morning, even as police reports were being filed about the above incident, Naganna attacked the National Legal Advisor Shri. Srikant Chakravarti’s residence with around 15 goons. He tried to force entry into the house, and threatened Shri. Chakravarti’s parents that he would shatter Shri. Chakravarti’s bones if he was found anywhere near his home.
The National General Secretary Shri. Tanmay Rajpurohit said, “Naganna has filed a false complaint with the police that Lok Paritran has demanded Rs. 6 lakhs from every candidate who participated in the election on our ticket. He threatened Shri. Nalin Jain, the Lok Paritran candidate from Gandhinagar, and said that he would burn his office down if Shri. Nalin Jain did not admit to the allegations. He has also issued other threats to some other candidates of the Party. Considering Naganna’s behavior after he was removed from the Presidency the doubts raised about his background do not seem to be unfounded.
Shri. Chandrashekhar said, “Lok Paritran is a Party that has espoused honesty and transparency right from its inception, and the National Committee feels that such a person should not be allowed to continue not only as the State President but also as a primary member of the Party.” Police complaints have been filed, and the National President made the following announcements:
B.T. Naganna is herewith removed from all positions in the Party
The Karnataka State Committee is suspended until further notice.
We will update you as further developments happen.
May 20, 2008 at 11:44 pm
Dear Members, our supporters and all of you who have voted for our candidates in the polls on May 10th….
The founders of Lok Paritran, who form the National Committee, held a PressConference on Monday and made allegations on Mr. B.T.Naganna. Almost all the newspapers have carried the details of this press note in their editions on Tuesday and the same has also been put up on the website of the party.
Mr. B.T.Naganna was our State President until he was removed from the post yesterday as per the announcement in the Press Conference. He was also our candidate from KRPuram constituency.
*All the allegations made by the National committee are baseless and totally false.
*We are now in the process of filing our case on the founders for defamation and damages. The details will be made available to all of you as soon as we actually file the case in the court of law.
The charge that Mr. Naganna attacked Tanmay is also false - in fact, Tanmay and his team organised a pre-meditated attack on Naganna at around 9.30pm on the 10th evening, after we all dispersed from the Press Club around 8.30pm.
The reason for the attack on Naganna is extremely shocking and shameful - but we want all our people to know the truth, however bitter it may be….
About 10 days ago, when all our candidates had started their Election campaigns in full earnest, the National General Secretary, Tanmay Rajpurohit, asked two of our candidates to adjust about Rs. 6 lakhs to 7 lakhs of expenses on behalf of candidates from one of the largest National political party. Both our candidates refused to do so.
Tanmay’s reasoning for this was that as none of our candidates were going to show more than Rs. 2 lakhs as the poll expenses, this would be very `helpful’ to our party.
This matter was discussed between a few select members and other candidates and was decided that we would refuse to do this `adjustment’ and that the National committee would be confronted with this issue immediately after the polling.
Tanmay and their team were also pressurizing our (ex) State Treasurer - Mr. Shashidhar Alabur, to submit the State unit’s accounts on the 5th of May itself. He said it would not be possible because of lack of time and when he demanded to see the accounts of the National unit, his request was refused by Tanmay saying that he had no right to scrutinize their accounts.
Thereafter, on the night of May 5th, around 1am, Tanmay and his team along with about 15 others came in 3 vehicles to his house and started banging on the gate of his house. Fearing that some untoward incident may happen, he did not venture out and called the police. Tanmay and his team left the premises before the police arrived. However, a formal complaint was not lodged as this could be extremely embarrassing for our candidates if this news leaked out to the press while the actual polling date was just 5 days away.
All candidates and core members were supposed to meet in the party office at 6pm on 10th evening after the polling concluded and take the National team to task on the above and many other such matters like a) they never joined any candidates’ campaigns even though they had supposedly more than 15 party members who had come down from Delhi/Rajasthan to help the candidates, b) there was absolutely no help in terms of funds for the State unit or the candidates, c) they were creating more problems for the candidates than helping them out by calling them for meetings at odd hours and places etc.
However, because of a bogus voting issue in one booth of one of our candidates, we all had to rush to the Chief Election Commissioner’s office where we joined the press conference in progress and then lodged our formal complaint on the bogus voting problem. Thereafter, all of us present had various discussions with the media and then dispersed around 8.30pm. A few minutes after Naganna left, Tanmay called him on his mobile and told him they wanted to have a personal discussion with him and agreed to meet near TGI Friday on Airport Road. All of them met for some time and Chandrashekhar, the National President, then asked Naganna to instruct all the candidates to ‘adjust’ Rs. 5 lakhs to 7 lakhs for another party’s candidates in our poll expenses. Naganna refused to do so and walked away.
Just as he got into his van, 4 men dressed in black, wearing black helmets with dark visors attacked him from both sides. A baseball bat was shoved in from one window which bruised Naganna in the face - but he was quick to grab the bat, get out from the other side and chase one of them with the bat. In the skirmish that followed, Naganna sustained injuries on his hands and legs also - but the thugs managed to escape in an old blue Maruti van. Tanmay & co were spotted watching all this and then they rushed to get into an auto and vanish.
When we all joined forces in the morning on Sunday and went to the Police Station to lodge a complaint, we found Tanmay & co also in the same Police station lodging a complaint on us ! Thereafter, we discovered that they had also lodged another complaint in another Police station on the events of the previous night claiming that Naganna had attacked Tanmay. And on Monday we got the news that they had conducted a press conference where they accused Naganna of various things and that the State committee has been dissolved.
In view of all these events, many statements made by Tanmay and Chandrashekhar, during the last so many meetings and even just before the nominations were filed, assume a different significance now. Remarks like ‘it is very easy to get money during elections’, ‘just pay 5000 for the nomination deposit and the rest will automatically come to you’, ‘adjusting 5 or 10 lakhs (rupees) is not a big thing during elections’ etc. etc. The fact that during the Elections in Gujarat, while the campaigns were in full swing in Gujarat, the whole team flew in from Ahmedabad to Bangalore for 2 days just to meet us and were found having a party at the Leela Palace !
May be this was due to some ‘adjustment’ ?
It is now quite obvious to us that these founders of Lok Paritran have always had these intentions of making money during the elections as the primary purpose and all that ideology etc is just eyewash.
We always felt, that, even though the founders had a horrible dress sense, were quite often rude and rough with members - we felt this was due to immaturity and that they would learn in the course of time - but we never doubted their integrity and morals. Alas, we have been proved wrong.
However, every single active member of our Bangalore unit as well as all the candidates (except Nalin Jain who contested from Gandhinagar constituency, who happens to be Tanmay’s close associate) have expressed their solidarity with Naganna and the state committee. Those of you who know us personally or have met us will know who is speaking the truth.
*We assure you all that all of us in the State committee, District committee and all the 10 candidates have been true to the ideology of Lok Paritran, are non-corrupt, are transparent in our actions and accountable for our actions totally - and will continue to be so.
* Some other facts that you all should be aware of :
Tanmay and Chandrashekhar are own brothers - but Chandrashekhar never writes Rajpurohit after his name (probably to hide this fact)
Dheeraj Kumar who is on the national committee is a cousin of Tanmay.
Santanagopalan and Srikant Chakravarti - who are also on the National committee are cousins of Tanmay.
So, the national committee is a family affair now.
(That is transparency for all of us !)
The three or four of the other founders who were with Tanmay when the party was founded have all left (or were forced to leave).
None of the National team answers their phones on Tuesday !!! (Seriously, we are not joking) - they did not want any of the candidates to file their nominations on Tuesday this time in Bangalore - but some did anyway. (May be they don’t teach about superstitions in IIT ?)
*What next for all of us and Lok Paritran ? *
We have decided to wait till the announcement of the poll results on May 25th before taking a final decision.
We feel this is not the end of it as the National committee has some more dirty tricks in their bag and will try and do some more damage to us in the next 10-15 days - but we will show them that they cannot get away with it anymore.
Many many sincere thanks to all of you who have supported us in our endeavors and efforts in these last 2 years. We will continue to strive for good governance and removal of corruption - and we hope your support is there for us too….
By the (ex) State Committee, (ex) District committee and our 10 candidates.

Dear Sir,
I thought that LP was a better party than the others… with all of those from IITs and IIMs founding a party, I definitely thought that it would do some thing good to the country and its people. But looking at this fight i dont think that you are any different from the other parties. Good that less people know about your party and hence less number are fooled by your dedication towards politics and that towards the country.
Thanking you and hoping that you dont even win a single seat in the current elections (because u dont deserve to win any).
And by the way i know that this comment will not be moderated as it is against LP….
May 20, 2008 at 11:46 pm
Politics is to add the people and not to remove them. I have seen that n number of people joined LP but disappeared due to the behavior of LP’s founders. Now take example of Naganna (Ex Karnataka state president), He has done more work for LP than the founders. He is even more known in the public. Now LP’s founders are blaming that he is not a Graduate. Even if he is not then is LP is giving him job?? Is it written in LP constitution that only Graduate can hold post of President? Due to Nagana only LP exists in Karnatka and not due to LP’s founders. Why they didn’t check his certificate at the time of giving him president post? No one was taker of LP in Karnataka and today also no one is there to take care of LP in Karnataka. Through mail I came to know that all are supporting Naganna and no one is contacting LP’s founders. From LP’s founders only I heard about the murder case pending against Naganna. I just wanted to tell LP’s founder that if Indian law doesn’t have any issue with Naganna then why you are bothering. You should provide proof also other wise some day you may also get same changes by others. Respect others to get respect.
through mail only I came to know that all the candidate have put their hard earned money and didn’t get even a single coins from LP’s founder as they promised. Most of the candidates are in depth of 50K to 75K. This is due to false promises by LP’s founders. I just wanted to tell you that all the members in Karnataka state unit including the entire candidate are very much true because they are not politician and they are as pure as any thing.
LP Karnataka members are shocked but their moral is very high. They will be keeping continuing their work but not under LP banners.

What a shame on Tanmay and chandrashekar, on the day i first met Tanmay, it was a press conference, he was so rude and carefree to the reporters, he did not even answer as a common man does, when this part was discussed when we met in the office later, Tanmay told some bull shit stories and said the reporters to do not be taken seriously. That day i did not understand his stand and now i do. I personally know how Mr Naganna, shashi, Ajit and team had worked hard for the cause of good governance and up against corruption. But shamefully the national team is comprised with such an anti-national elements. Naganna I am with you with full force
May 20, 2008 at 11:47 pm
I have doubt whether LP’s founders are really from IIT. They don’t know LP’s constitution also. They think that any state unit/Office can be started any time and dissolve any time. There is certain procedure for this. As per the constitution, national committee have to sent notice to the state unit and seek clarification of the issue and I have come to know that they have not done so far but they have announced in the media. They also think that LP is their parental property. Dear founders, the day party is registered with election commission its public property and not yours own.
Today I came to know from website that a new office has been opened to do the business.
************
Lok Paritran is happy to announce a new and improved office in Karnataka. The Karnataka State office will be located in Bangalore and is open for business. The contact information is given below.
157, 12th Main, Nagendra Block, Bangalore - 560 050
Opposite Aiyappa Temple on 50 Ft Road
Contact #: 94489 85711
***********************
I am confused whether they have opened the office to do the business or server the society. No No, its for the business what they did this time. In another 3 months there are possibility of Corporation election and later Parliamentary election and they can do better business.
As per the Raj comments, LP (desolved) should merge with another party or create a new organization. I feel this is very easy because what ever name LP have got due to Karnata State unit and not due to LP’s founders. As all are together they can set the things right very quickly but here question is what will happen if LP founders will continue in LP. They will be keep doing business on the name of IIT, keep shitting here and there so its better to finish them (Remove them from LP)politically so that in future they will not dare to open even NGO also.
I believe Karntaka unit has a support of all the state units and together they will create history.

Dear all,
Greetings! I am Cdr. (Retd) BB Khilari from Bangalore, who has contested the Assembly elections from Lok Paritran and awaiting results on 25 May 08. At the outset, I would like to inform you in right earnestness that you all are being totally ill-informed and mis-guided about Karnataka LP party by Tanmay Raj Purohit and his brother Chandrashekhar through LP website.
You all may be surprised to know that if at all LP party noticeably exists in the country, it is the Karnataka unit, thanks to the dedicated efforts of Mr. BT Naganna, the erstwhile State President and Mr. Shashidhar Alabur, the Treasurer, who have been sweating it out for over two and a quarter years to spread the message of LP, without any recognisable support from the so-called National Committee of LP headed by the two brothers mentioned above.
I only joined about six months ago, highly impressed by the ideology and vision portrayed by the party, and contributed my bit in its growth. However, you shall all be surprised to know that none of the National Committee members have helped any of the 11 candidates in the campaigning process even on a single day. Instead they were busy contacting the candidates one by one to adjust the poll expenses of Congress candidates into their accounts as the maximum expenditure of LP candidates was around 2 to 2.5 lakhs against the CEC allowed limit of 10 lakhs. The basic aim seems to have been to convert black money of the Congress candidates into white for their own self-aggrandisement.
When I got the wind of this and when Tanmay Purohit and Chandrashekhar wanted to visit me alone at my residence, I refused and asked them to arrange a formal meeting at the party Hqs. Since none of the candidates, except perhaps, one, Nalin Jain, presumably their relative, and an unfit LP candidate projected by the National team, agreed to their nefarious demands, on 10th May, they invited Mr. Naganna, for a personal discussion at about 8.45 pm. and after the discussions, where in Mr. Naganna refused to influence any of the candidates accounts or make adjustments in the State accounts, and when Mr. Naganna was about to leave by his car he was attacked by three masked men from a car immediately behind his car with sticks and base ball bats. Naganna somehow managed to chase them away and went home and informed Mr. Shashidhar and others of the party (I have a message received at about 10.21 pm stating Naganna attacked by Tanmay and gang, be careful, saved in my mobile). The conspirators then went and lodged a complaint with police that Naganna had attacked them. However, Mr. Naganna, keepiung in mind, the reputation of the party had discussion with many a party members and candidates next morning and filed a complaint of assault in the evening.
In the mean time on that day Chandrashekhar and Tanmay addressed a press conference ( all pre-planned, as you have to book in advance) to state that Mr. Naganna has been dismissed and the State unit of Lp has been dissolved, by slapping totally false and baseless charges against Naganna, an act which is also utterly illegal as no prior notice had been issued nor the National council meeting had been convened to take such a decision. Surprisingly, yesterday, when the state committee was holding its meeting from 1600 hours and extended upto 2000 hours Mr. Nalin Jain, in collusion with Tanmay and Chandrashekhar, lodged a complaint in a remote police station at about 1830 hours that Mr. Naganna, Mr. Shashidhar and Mr. Anuj Mishra, a candidate, along with 10 heavily armed goondas attacked him at his office and demanded Rs. six lakhs and to withdraw the complaint lodged by Tanmay against Naganna. I, along with others went to the Police station today and have told the Inspector that this complaint was absolutely false as all the 3 members accused were in a meeting with us the previous day at the alleged time of attack.
The police have also confirmed that no one visited Nalin Jain’s office as alleged and are taking suitable action. I would like to inform you people that 10 candidates, including Naganna and myself, who contested the elections really sweated it out against corruption, in-efficiency and in-competency in governance and apathy of the administrative machinery towards citizens’ problems with un-imaginable sincerity and dedication and that too in our pre-decided limited budgets, which was appreciated alround. The acts of the National committee of LP came as a surprising blow to all of us and has done considerable damage in the eyes of the public. We have learnt with fgeat pains that these conspirators and the so called founders of LP have done similar acts in Tamil Nadu, UP, Delhi, Mumbai, Pune and Gujrat and have not promoted the cause for LP’s growth , but were mis-guiding every one , including those who are funding from abroad.
Please convey this trurth to all those who you know and expose these mis-guided youths, who are younger to my children, and help me in pursuing my fight against corruption which is the original aim of this party.
My E-mail ID is bbkhilari@yahoo.com and you can contact me on 09342689574. Let us all together build a good society and a good governance.
Warm Regards,
May 20, 2008 at 11:49 pm
Through this forum I would like to state that if Tanamy Rajpurhit and Chandrashekhar really belong to the highly respected Alumni of the IIT’ians and honour them, they should come forward and accept their folly and gracefully resign from the primary membership of the party along with all the members of the National executive committee of LP.If they do so, as an elderly person of the party, I shall pardon them for all their mis-endeavors so far, and assure them that no member of the party or any Bangalorean, there are lakhs of them who appreciated our efforts, shall cause any harm to them when they are repenting thus in front of the press. I shall also make best efforts to see that legal actions initiated against them so far are also dealt with leniently. This will ensure restoration of public faith in LP for the purpose for which it was launched and all the breakaway groups, abandoned groups/individuals of earsttwhile LP as well as other smaller groups/parties with similar ideology and vision can all join together to form a strong united national force to transform politics and Governance in our country. I know that it is a “TALL” demand; but the time to think thus is “Right Now” and if everyone associated with this page thinks deeply and responds, we would have contributed immensely to the dreams of all of us, including Mr. Sanjeev Sabhlok, who may not have to wait too long to genuinely form his team of 1500 capable volunteers of freedom movement..
If they do not come forward for repentance and act as I have suggested, I can only say that that they shall be ruining their lives at such an young age, as truth alone shall triumph over all mis-deeds. We shall also miss a Golden opportunity to unite all like-minded groups to form a united national force to transform India; and, further, the IIT Alumni may permanently have a black mark on its credibility vis-a-vis values and ethics in life just because of these individuals. I request all bloggers, friends and others who were quite concerned about the future of LP and such other outfits to think and see positively in this manner and by the grace of God and our collective thought and action we shall succeed.
Warm Regards,
Cdr. (Retd) BB Khilari

May 22, 2008 at 12:55 am
I wonder what was the motive of these brothers to hide for such a long time that they are real brother …
Is this the transparency about which rajpurohit brothers tanmay and chandrashekhara was talking and preaching about ???
They have broken our trust…

God only knows..

Last man, Nalin Jain is now New karnatka state president. I don’t know whether LP founders have checked their certificate or not.
Nalin Jain got full idea and support from Tanmay and Chandrashekhar to fight the election because these gyes have experience of fighting 4 elections. This 100 to 125 is their limitation because same number of votes they got in UP as wel as Gujarat. They got good vote in Chenai because Ajit Shukla (Now national President of BPD) was the back bone of the election there.
When all of the Candidate (Not sure about Nalin) in Bangalore were busy in there campaign, National team was busy for the following thing…
1. To get all the wrong information about Karnataka state president BT Nagana.
2. To plan how, when and where to attack Naganna.
3. How to get the financial details from state treasurer so that they can do some exercise.
They didn’t visit any candidate at the time of campaigning.
They are finished now and I believe they can become hench man for some seating Corporator because they are not worth more that this.

Three quit Lok Paritran; to float new outfit
Staff Reporter
“There is no coordination between practice and policy in the party”
# Mylapore candidate Santhanagopalan Vasudev got extra attention `based on caste’
# The three say they were not informed about accounts on party funds
# They allege there was no written policy constitution and procedure
# They also alleged national head of the party Tanmay Rajpurohit was dictatorial
CHENNAI: A dramatically-titled press release “The Other Face of Lok Paritran” was circulated at a press conference on Wednesday by the breakaway faction of the barely two-month-old political party that debuted with the May 8 Assembly elections.
K. Rajamany, P. Elanthirumaran and A. Ishrayel Maheshwar, who were the Lok Paritran (LP) candidates at Annanagar, Chepauk and Thousand Lights respectively, said they quit the party because there is “no co-ordination between practice and policy.”
They announced that they intended to launch their own party with the same ideology as Lok Paritran — transparency in government.
Their key complaints were that Mylapore candidate Santhanagopalan Vasudev was shown partiality for campaign funds by the party’s heads and given extra attention “based on caste.”
The three said that they were not informed about the accounts on party funds and there was no written policy constitution and procedure. They were also disgruntled about the way office-bearers were appointed. They all accused LP national head Tanmay Rajpurohit of being dictatorial.
Mr. Rajamany said that LP Mudukulathur candidate Vanchi Narayanan would also be joining them.
However, when State president of LP Aravind Seshagiri was contacted, he said that he had spoken to Mr. Narayanan who expressed his support for the LP.
`Immature charges’
Mr. Seshagiri said that the rift was caused due to “childishness” and attributed the allegations of the breakaway group to “immaturity”. About the accusations regarding party accounts and office-bearers, he said: “We are just learning and are inexperienced. We will sort this out over a period of time. As for the accounts, even the Election Commissioner gives us one month after the elections to present them, but these guys wanted to see them the next day.”
While I was searching about lok paritra party , I came across the above information. It seems that these guys are habitual offenders in finance related frauds.Even in the Tamil nadu they were questioned by their own partymen about the funds and acounts , they refused to give as they have taken all election funds for their luxury I suppose.
