The first session of the newly formed political party Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal was held at Jairam Ashram in Haridwar on Sunday. About 1,000 members from across the country participated in the meeting of the party which was announced during March this year in Jammu. The new party was formed after local Ekjutt Jammu Party which was active in Jammu and registered with the Election Commission, chose to become pan-India with the name ‘Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal’.
Its national president advocate Ankur Sharma said, “After independence, it is the only political party to enter the elections keeping eternal values and standards in front. By declaring our ‘Sapta Siddhanta’ (seven principles), the party has made it clear on which values we are going to contest the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. Our election manifesto is yet to come, for which we have discussed in detail in the meeting with our members. The process of taking public opinion from every corner of the country has also started,” he said.
He further added, “Ekam Sanatan Bharat Dal is more of a movement than a political party, whose objective is the renaissance of Sanatan culture and protection of Sanatan Samaj, temples and cows.” The party leader alleged that the Bharatiya Janata Party came to power on the basis of Hindu votes but has not done a single work which is beneficial for the Hindus. He said that the BJP has been in power since 2014 but the slaughter of cows has not been banned so far and Hindu temples have not been freed from government control while minority appeasement is being carried out blatantly.
