Amar Singh Compares Lok Manch with V P Singh's Jan Morcha


Lucknow, May 11 (IANS) Former Samajwadi Party leader Amar Singh said that his newly formed Lok Manch was on the lines of the late V.P. Singh's Jan Morcha which the latter had formed after marching out of the Congress in the eighties.

"My Lok Manch is a non-political forum on the lines of V.P. Singh's Jan Morcha, but I do not deny that this body will eventually merge into the sea of politics," Singh told media persons here Monday.

Accompanied by his Bollywood entourage comprising Sanjay Dutt, Jaya Prada and Manoj Tiwari, he said: "I propose to launch a full scale movement with effect from Dec 1, for the creation of an independent state of Purvanchal to be carved out of the neglected backward Eastern Uttar Pradesh."

He ruled out any possibility of the Bachchans joining his outfit. "Amitabh Bachchan is a non political person and as far as his wife Jaya is concerned, she may be part of my family, but I cannot impose anything on her," he said.
