President's rule not an alternative: AJSU
Ranchi: AAJSU chief Sudesh Mahto Wednesday said President's rule is not an alternative in a democratic setup and the people should get a chance to give a fresh mandate.
"President's rule is not an alternative in a democratic system. There should be a fresh mandate to give a stable and lasting government," Mahto said while addressing his party's central committee meeting here.
He asked his party men to hold Lok Panchayat at all the fourteen Lok Sabha constituencies and apprise people of the current political situation and how a fresh mandate could only provide a stable government, a party release quoting him said.
Mahto, who was the deputy chief minister in the outgoing Arjun Munda government, also asked party leaders and workers to make efforts in enrolling 11 lakh people into the party by February 15.
