Dr Dharamvir Gandhi and others briefing the media
Formation of Fourth Front still in Doldrums - Even Dr Gandhi could not announce the formation of Fourth Front.
Chandigarh, September 25, 2016:
The idea to float the Fourth Front seems to be in cold waters with prominent leaders giving a miss to a Round Table Conference called by suspended AAP leader and MP Patiala Dr. Dharamvir Gandhi to discuss about its formation on Sunday. Even after having a Round Table Meeting of like minded splinter groups and some individual politicians hele here today , Dr gandhi could not announce the formation of the proposed Fourth Political front to contest 2017 polls.
Dr. Gandhi had called like-minded people, groups and leaders to seeks suggestions and discuss on the formation of the Fourth Front. The founders of Awaaz-e-Punjab Navjot Singh Sidhu, Bains Brother and AAP’s suspended Punjab chief Sucha Singh Chhotepur, who had been singing in a common tune gave a miss to the conference.
Olympian Pargat Singh, MLA Jalandhar Cantonment and certain other groups, however, joined Dr. Gandhi but Pargat Singh attended the conference in his individual capacity and not as a representative of Awaz-e-Punjab forum.
Dr Gandhi said there was concensus on the need of a strong regional party serving the interests of the state but the time not ripe for forming a political party and the meeting decided to go for a broader Political front the modalities of the same are still to be discussed and chalked out .
Talking to media persons, Dr. Gandhi said Punjab’s present is grim and future is hopeless.
“ We all feel that political set up has failed to protect interests of the states and it has become necessary that state central frame has to be revisited and as such to have a regional political forum”, he said.
Dr Gandhi claimed that announcement of Awaaz-e-Punjab was not a serious step. He, however, stressed on the need of a strong regional political party but said it could not be formed at this stage.
Dr Gandhi claimed that Pargat Singh attended the conference following his personal relations and not as a reprentetive of Awaaz-e-Punjab, while Chhotepur had send his three representatives.
Dr. Gandhi was also accompanied by Manjit Singh, of Swaraj Party, and Harish Dhanda, former SAD MLA.
When asked that who will head the front, Dr Gandhi claimed that the decision will be taken only after the front comes to existence. But said it is sure that he would not be the head.
The main objective of the front will be to establish real federalism and Rule of Law in Punjab.
