| 12 candidates to contest for National BSP in 2008 polls | | | Early Times Reporter Jammu | Apr 28 The newly launched National Bahajun Samaj party has made up its mind to field as many as one dozen candidates in the forthcoming election with a clear aim to win crucial seats to unsettle the applecart of big players in the fray. Core group of the party leaders is already on the job and working behind the scene to weigh pros and cons before the party takes final decision on their choice of constituencies. In all probability is it is likely that National Bahaju Samaj would contest from Samba, RSPura and Kathua. A senior NBP leader said that,"Samba,Bisnah,Vijaypur ,R.S.Pura,Suchetgarh,Marh,Ramnagar,Kathua and a couple of seats in Udhampur belt have been selected and the party workers have been asked to improve the level of mass contact programme with the voters in their constituency." They stated that the President of the NBP,Dr Sat Pal,will be fielded from Vijaypur constituency from where Manjit Singh,who had won the seat in 2002 on BSP ticket and had later joined the PDP,was going to be the PDP candidate. In reply to a question the party leaders said that hitherto "we have decided to contest the election alone as the possibility of forging a pre-poll alliance with any political party has not been explored."They stated that the NBP candidates will face hardly any challenge from the BSP but "we may have to work hard for defeating the National Conference and the Congress candidates in constituencies which have been identified for our partymen." The NBA has also prepated a tentative list of eight candidates so far.The process was on because a large number "of our party men are keen to get the NBP mandate."The Party has no plan to field candidates in the Kashmir valley because it wants to concentrate on at least 10 seats in the Jammu region so that its candidates could get berth in the Assembly. |
