Democratic Liberal Congress


The Democratic Liberal Congress is a South African political party formed in 2016 by Patrick Pillay.
Pillay was a Minority Front councillor for fifteen years before infighting in that party after the death of longstanding leader Amichand Rajbansi led him to break away and form the DLC.
The party opposes affirmative action and land expropriation without compensation, and is in favour of austerity measures for government and simplifying business.
