Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. Madan Murlidhar Dulloo, MP (born 20th September 1949) is a politician and diplomat from Mauritius. He is the leader of the Mauritian Militant Socialist Movement and served as Minister of Foreign Affairs from 2005 to 2008. His sobriquet in Mauritian politics is "pagla mamou". A law graduate from the Sorbonne, Dulloo was first elected during the 1976 general elections under the banner of the Mauritian Militant Movement which very nearly toppled the then Labour-led government. He eventually switched to the newly-created breakaway political party called the Militant Socialist Movement in 1983, where he was Foreign Minister for two brief periods in 1986 and 1990. He also served as the Minister of Justice and as Minister of Agriculture. Bitter disputes arose in 1995 with then Prime Minister Anerood Jugnauth, which eventually led him and a group of former sympathisers to form a new party called the Mauritian Militant Socialist Movement.
