Former Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD) leader and Madhepura MP Rajesh Ranjan alias Pappu Yadav on Sunday announced the formation of Jan Karanti Adhikar Morcha aimed at providing a "strong third option" to Bihar voters.
The move came after a marathon meeting held here with his supporters, including people from various walks of life, and hours after Chief Election Commissioner Nasim Zaidi said Bihar Assembly elections scheduled later this year will be held in September-October.
"We are forming Jan Kranti Adhikar Morcha (JKAM) to provide a strong third option to the people of Bihar, who have been cheated by various political parties for the last 67 years. It will fight all wrongs in the society, it will fight the anti-people system, and bring in a revolution for development," Yadav told media persons.
He added that the front will stay away from segregations on the lines of caste, community and religion, and work for the people of Bihar.
