Social activist Prahlad Pandey has been on an indefinite fast in Indore for five days, demanding the removal of illegal hoardings, banners and posters.

Indore (Madhya Pradesh): Social activist Prahlad Pandey’s indefinite fast against illegal hoardings, banners and posters in Indore has received support from Rajeev Talwaar, who praised Pandey for raising public-interest issues. Talwaar said people like Pandey should enter politics to bring about change. Pandey, meanwhile, has vowed to continue his water-only fast until illegal displays are removed from the city’s streets, neighbourhoods and crossings.
Pandey has been sitting with his wife, Sangeeta Pandey, under the Gandhi statue near Regal Square for the past five days. His protest has also become a platform for his ‘Jan Dharma’ campaign, through which he is urging citizens to regularly question the government on public issues.

Speaking in support of Pandey, Talwaar said, “Aise mard jab tak Sansad, Adhikari, Vidhayak nahi banenge samaj ka bhala nahi hone wala hai. Bhai sahab sher hain aap.”
(Unless people like you become MPs, officials or legislators, society will not improve. Brother, you are a lion.)
