12 Jat villages in Mehrauli take ‘independent’ stand

New Indian Express  

NEW DELHI: Disgruntled with conventional political parties, residents of 12 villages in the Mehrauli assembly constituency have come together to support the independent candidature of Balyogi Balaknath, a Hindu ascetic of the Gorakhnath Math. The villages include Lado Sarai, Katwaria Sarai, Ber Sarai, Masoodpur, Rajokri, Mehrauli, Kishangarh, Kusumpur, Motilal Nehru Camp, Saket, Vasant Kunj and Sewa Basti. Manphul Singh Dagar, a resident of Ber Sarai, expressed his disappointment with the current AAP MLA, Naresh Yadav, stating that the legislator has done nothing for their area. How can they claim it was built for Rs 8 lakh when its condition has worsened within just six months?” Devilal, another resident, announced plans for a ‘Chakka Jam’ protest against AAP, BJP, and Congress, and pushing for Balaknath as an independent candidate.
