New Delhi, 23rd September 2024

The National Lok Kalyan Party (NLKP) marked a historic moment in Delhi’s political landscape by unveiling its first citizen-endorsed manifesto, launching the "Bol Delhi Bol" campaign at a press conference held at the Delhi Press Club. The manifesto represents a radical shift in governance, empowering citizens to take control of their city’s future through active participation.

NLKP’s Vision: Power in the Hands of Citizens

Under the leadership of Sardar Inder Preet Singh, NLKP's National President, the party introduced a dedicated portal allowing Delhi citizens to nominate their candidates for the Vidhan Sabha elections and submit suggestions for the manifesto. 

This initiative signals the dawn of a new era, where governance is shaped by public input. "Delhi’s Voice, Delhi’s Choice" proclaimed Inder Preet Singh, emphasizing NLKP’s commitment to fostering citizen-driven democracy. He further announced NLKP’s plan to release 70+1 manifestos—70 individual manifestos for each constituency and one unified manifesto, designed to reflect both local and city-wide aspirations.

A Bold Framework for Delhi’s Future: The DELHI Framework

NLKP Vice President Sardar Harmeet Singh unveiled the visionary DELHI Framework, which prioritizes:

Meanwhile, Bibi Harleen Kaur, NLKP National Women’s Wing President, addressed the crucial role of women in shaping Delhi’s political discourse. "Women have always been the backbone of families and societies. It’s time they led from the front in politics too," she stated. Harleen Kaur stressed NLKP’s zero tolerance for crimes against women, calling for immediate reforms to ensure their safety and security.

Commitment to Education, Healthcare, and Law & Order
