Khera, president, BRSP, said, “This party has not been formed by disgruntled politicians who did not get positions of power. Instead, a group of committed people has come together on a common platform with a mission to discharge their obligation to the nation. Members include Lt Gen (Retd) Prem Sagar, Dr S C Manchanda, a leading cardiologist, Ramesh Agarwal, the president of All India Transporters Welfare Association, Justice Devender Gupta, former Chief Justice of Andhra Pradesh High Court, and J R Agarwal, founder of the All India Equality Forum.”
“People from across the country with varied professional backgrounds have come together to make a difference, such as Leela Poonawala, Prof Rakesh Bhatnagar of JNU and Dr Hegde, former vice chancellor of Manipal University. This is a proud moment for us,” he said. Reiterating this viewpoint, Lt Gen (Retd) Prem Sagar said, “Through BRSP, I am proud to be a part of another freedom struggle for the country.”“We are the only party which has taken a public stand against all caste and religion-based reservations and the policies of appeasement and will not compromise the integrity of the nation at any cost. On top of the party’s agenda would be the abolition of caste-based politics, which is breeding hatred and destroying the nation. The main focus of the party will be the upliftment of the weaker sections of the society based on the economic criteria,” said a press release from the party.
