Ideology of the Party : The Mahaswaraj Party (Rashtriya Mahaswaraj Bhumi Party) was established to address the fundamental issues of the people. The current opposition has failed to raise these basic issues, and the government continues to ignore them, leading to high inflation and unemployment in the country. It has become crucial for the organization to bring these issues to the government’s attention.

The nation’s economy is gradually deteriorating, youth unemployment is rising, and small entrepreneurs are suffering due to financial crises. The government has not taken any steps to curb rising inflation and unemployment.

The political ideology of the Mahaswaraj Party is inspired by Honorable Sardar Vallabhbhai Patel, Honorable Bhimrao Ramji Ambedkar, and Honorable Maulana Abul Kalam Azad. These freedom fighters are our leaders who inspire us and empower us to address the people’s fundamental issues. The Mahaswaraj Party has always maintained a progressive and people-centric ideology.
