Dear Friends, Lok Satta movement has been the driving force behind India's political and governance reform agenda since 1997. After nine (9) long and successful years as a civil society movement, Lok Satta realized that there were limits to what it could achieve. Most of the critical political and governance reforms must be driven by political parties, and not civil societies alone. This led to the creation of Lok Satta Party in October of 2006 with the aim of ushering in a new political culture. The President of Lok Satta Party, Dr. Jayaprakash Narayan, will be leading an interactive session on Leadership in the 21st century. Please see the details of the event below, as well as in the attached invitation. Please be sure to forward this email to as many of your contacts that may be interested... Lok Satta Party Dear Friends, India is growing and the world sees India as an emerging global power However Do we really feel secure? Can we build a first-world economy with third-class politics? Our robust economy and vibrant society are threatened by inept leadership and corrupt, inefficient governance. In India today Corruption and bad governance rob people of equal opportunities. Quality education and affordable healthcare are still dreams for most citizens. Politics is big business for those who want to fleece the public. Ordinary people are alienated by the money-muscle nexus in politics. Justice takes decades and is inaccessible to ordinary citizens. Roads are crumbling, power outages are frequent, and clean drinking water is scarce. INDIA Must Change! INDIA needs a New Political Culture. Lok Satta Movement has marshaled India's political and governance reform agenda since 1997. However, most of the critical governance and political reforms must be driven by political parties. Lok Satta Party aims to change the rules of political engagement not merely challenge existing political parties. Lok Satta's success depends upon the moral, intellectual, and financial support of a broad coalition of Indian citizens especially educated professionals. With this in view, we invite to you to an exclusive interactive session with Dr. Jayaprakash Narayan, President, Lok Satta Party On Leadership in the 21st Century: Opportunities and Challenges & The resources needed to usher in a new political culture Venue: LV Prasad Eye Institute Patodia Auditorium 6th Floor, Road No. 2, Banjara Hills, Hyderabad Time and Date: 6 8 pm Friday, 14th March, 2008 Please RSVP with Mr. Amit Thakral at [EMAIL PROTECTED] or 9989322929 Regards Lok Satta Party
