Ramesh launches new watchdog group

NATIONAL TEAM Unity leader Ramesh Lawrence Maharaj yesterday launched a movement which he said was geared towards developing genuine transformation in the country.

Calling the association “The Movement for Social Transformation and National Redemp-tion”, Maharaj launched the movement at a public  NTU meeting in Rio Claro yesterday even-ing. Maharaj stressed that it was not a political party, but a watchdog association for persons of all political affiliations and groups. “This is intended to be a grouping of citizens from all walks of life, from all races, religions and political persuasions who are interested in building a new Trinidad and Tobago...We will support what is right and fight what is wrong,” he  declared.

He explained that the organisation was only seeking the commitment of citizens, and there were no fees to be paid and no entry forms to fill out to join. The NTU leader said: “If I can be a catalyst for change then so be it. I have always fought for right and will continue to do so as long the Almighty allows me to continue the struggle... We must remember that whatever we do must be done in a spirit of togetherness, of camaraderie, of co-operation, and of brotherly love. “Trinidad and Tobago is a small nation of just over 1.3 million people. “We must ensure that we utilise all our resources in building that better society that we seek”.
