NewsPatrolling.com: Bangalore, 16th March 2018: Dr. Nowhera Shaik, President, All India Mahila Empowerment Party, said she wouldn’t be announcing the names of the candidates any time soon because she intends to protect them from any dangers and threats.
Dr. Nowhera Shaik says, “We are contesting for the first time and we need to be extra careful in protecting our people who are supporting us in this mission. Our intentions and our way in politics is completely different from the other parties. For us, safety and empowerment of women in the country is the core agenda. I have been receiving degrading messages for my decision to step into politics. But, this won’t tie us down or break us. We will continue to speak out and stand for clean politics and administration.”
Founded by Dr Nowhera Shaik, the party will contest all the 224 seats in Karnataka Assembly polls. With a focus on ensuring women are able to exercise their rights and get a voice in the political space, the party is contesting the Karnataka Assembly seats as a precursor to the Lok Sabha elections in 2019. It plans to contest all the Lok Sabha seats, all 525 of them.
Dr Shaik mentioned, “Though Karnataka Assembly Elections is the launchpad for us, we intend to contest all the Lok Sabha seats and make a mark.”
The party aims to stay distinct from other parties, and hence is still scrutinising all the applications received for candidature to select people with clean records and who intend to serve the nation.
