Rather than addressing the aspirations and grievances of the people of the state there was put into place, very early on, a system wherein by extending a scheme of patronage-both financial and political to a few blue-eyed individuals. This evolved a \u2018Patronage-based\u2019 socio-political system the first casualty of which was merit and enterprise. Even if a person had to get a small job done they had to knock on the doors of those wielding patronage and only then would any job be enabled. This was also effective in denying empowerment at the grass-roots level and retaining it with the favoured few. The system however rung the death-knell of progress and enterprise in the state and devoid it of meeting its true potential. We can\u2019t afford to be bystanders and need to stand up and carve our own collective destiny according to our own will and potential.\u201d<\/i><br \/>\n<i>Lone went on to say that People\u2019s Conference is committed to work for inclusive development of the people and bring in reforms in the system, to ensure, safeguard the interests of a common man.
