Former IPS officer Shivdeep Lande on Tuesday announced the formation of a new political outfit ‘Hindu Sena Party’ which, he declared, will contest the upcoming assembly elections in Bihar.<\/p>\n

Mr Lande, who had resigned from the Indian Police Service less than a year ago, made the announcement at a press conference here.<\/p>\n

The 2006 batch officer, whose flamboyant style of functioning had earned him the epithet ‘Singham of Bihar’, said he considered the state his ‘karmabhoomi’, despite having his roots in Maharashtra.<\/p>\n

Notably, the 49-year-old former IPS officer is the son in law of Vijay Shivtare, a Shiv Sena leader and former Maharashtra minister.<\/p>\n

Talking to reporters, Mr Lande said “I did my best to serve the people while in IPS, when I was bound by the All India Service Conduct Rules. I realised my limitations when, despite the best of intentions, I could not help the public in matters that fell beyond the police’s ambit”.<\/p>\n

Asserting that the fledgling outfit will contest the assembly polls “100 per cent”, Mr Lande, however, evaded a direct reply to pointed queries about his own possibility of entering the fray.<\/p>\n

“We are at present focusing on building the organisation. You can consider all candidates of the Hind Sena Party as fighting on behalf of Shivdeep Lande”, added the officer.<\/p>\n

He claimed “I am not looking for any shortcuts to enjoying power. After my resignation, I had received the offer of a Rajya Sabha ticket from an established party. But I was pursuing my own ideals. I travelled across Bihar and realised that there is a scope for a political alternative”.<\/p>\n
