Medha Patkar supports AAP; gives boost to party in Maharashtra

The Narmada Bachao Andolan, with Patkar at its head will endorse all the policies of AAP

The Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) got a major boost in Maharashtra with the Narmada Bachao Andolan and its allied groups extending support Monday, a top activist said here.

"We have endorsed all the policies of AAP and have extended our full support to the party. Our struggles and campaigns on various issues shall continue jointly," said NAB leader and well-known activist Medha Patkar.

She said that in the name of politics, corruption has increased and the people are being looted.

"The AAP was born out of an agitation against corruption. This struggle is for 'satya' (truth), not 'satta' (power). The exact nature of our collaboration shall be decided at a meeting in Delhi later this week," Patkar told mediapersons.
