Appeal for Clean Campaign

LETTER SENT TO MY PAP MEMBER OF PARLIAMENT TODAY

I write to you as your constituent. Many of us have pledged our support to your candidacy in the coming general elections.

Your fellow party members have asked us to step back, and consider the value of the team and party in considering your candidacy.

If we were to do so, I am afraid there may be more reasons not to support your team and party as opposed to your candidacy. This will not be fair to the many years of wonderful work your have carried out in our constituency.

For example, I am particularly concerned that some of your fellow party members appear bent on dividing the support for your party in their apparent desire to stay in power.

They have now embarked on a process of character desecration in what comes across as an attempt to appeal to particular religious lobbies. This is an unfortunate attack on the secular nature of our country. It is reflective of a colonialist dark age to divide and rule. It will hurt our society in the long run.

I hope you will persuade your party members not to embark on this treacherous path.

Happiness,
Dharmendra Yadav
