Lucknow, Jun 16: Nearly six months after his expulsion from Samajwadi Party, Amar Singh today announced launch of Akhil Bharitya Lok Manch with himself as President and actress-politician Jaya Prada his deputy.
“As of now Lok Manch would be an apolitical organisation and I will be its president, whereas Jaya Prada would be its national vice-president”, Amar Singh told reporters here.
Bollywood actor Sanjay Dutt, the former General Secretary of the SP who sided with Singh, would be its Secretary General and Bhojpuri actor Manoj Tiwari will head the cultural wing – Sanskritik Bhartiya Lok Manch, he said announcing the executive committee members.
The former SP leader said that as he would be too busy with his responsibility as the chairman of National Federation for Smaller States, which is demanding creation of six states, Obedullah Azmi would be Lok Manch’s working president.
