Regional party Kosal Kranti floated in Orissa

Rourkela, Nov 28 (UNI) Kosal Kranti, a new regional political party, was floated in Orissa.

Party secretary Baidyanath Mishra claimed that it had been recognised by the Election Commission and would fight the next Assembly and Lok Sabha elections.

The party, he said, would organise its next convention at Bolangir on December two to mobilise public opinion.

Mr Mishra said the party would fight for a separate state comprising ten districts of western Orissa and Athmallik sub-division of Angul district as he alleged that the area remained ''neglected'' by successive governments during the past 60 years.
