THIRUVANANTHAPURAM, AUG. 9. The Lok Janshakti Party today took out a march and blockaded the Raj Bhavan demanding that the right to work be recognised as a fundamental right. The march was part of a nation-wide stir launched by the party.

Yuva Janshakthi workers who staged a dharna before the PSC office against the Government ban on appointments also joined the march. Inaugurating the Raj Bhavan blockade, the party State president, Ms. Jayalakshmi, said the right to work was a birth right. She demanded protection for self-employed people like wayside vendors and equal rights for Dalits, religious minorities and women.

The party general secretaries, Mr. Jayapradeep, Mr. K.V. Rajendran, Mr. Prakash Mathew and Mr. K.G. Mohan, the Yuva Janshakthi national secretary, Mr. Jacob Peter, and the Sthree Janshakthi State president, Ms. P. Sreedevi, participated in the march.
