Citizens for Democracy (CFD), Janandolana Maha Maitri (JMM) and other like-minded organisations have come together to chalk out a long-term programme to defeat the BJP and Sangha Parivar-Fascist forces in the forthcoming Lok Sabha and Assembly elections in various States.
President of CFD S.R. Hiremath told pressperons in Dharwad on Monday that the recent victory by the Congress in the Assembly elections in the State has inspired the organisations to come together and chalk out a plan for fighting the BJP and Sangh Parivar in the long run.
Mr. Hiremath said that a convention of civil societies of Karnataka and Maharashtra and JMM will be organised in Pune on July 22. This apart, a national-level convention to formulate a people’s movement for socio-cultural politics will be organised at Gandhi Peace Foundation in New Delhi soon. And, both these conventions will be based on the inspirations drawn from Sharanas and Sufi saints, he said.
