Summary:
“These parties in Karnataka do not have any vision, and do not offer an alternative force to national parties,” he said. Such a force cannot come into being under existing political parties,” said Yadav.Yadav also bemoaned the sustained efforts made by all leading political parties to prevent debates on pressing problems plaguing the state. “Swaraj India is an attempt to create a political force that will channel these movements. The idea of regional parties does not mean they have to restrict themselves to specific regions. Sadly, most regional parties don’t have any national agenda or any economic policies.”Yadav rued that regional parties in Karnataka, including the JD(S), were only worried about winning an election and retaining power for the longest period..
