Sthaniya Lokadhikar Samiti is a Shiv Sena affiliated organisation for the preservation of rights of employment for Maharashtrians in the Indian state of Maharashtra.[1][2] The name of the organisation approximately translates to "Association for the Rights of Local Citizens".[3] According to Patel, the Samiti was a front for the Shiv Sena to "ensure jobs for its youth in the government and banking sectors as well as... engineering and pharmaceutical units in the Thane - Belapur region"[4]
