| History to repeat. These were the babus who for the sake of leadership position were responsible for division of Janatha Party under various names. Now they unit under one banner. so after some months/years they may divide again. So nothing special about it. They are interested in leadership positions and not in welfare of the common people. May God forgive them(!?) for their opportunism. | |
