With elections to the Lok Sabha and Assembly scheduled to be held next year, half a dozen new players are set to throw their hat in the ring.

These will be in addition to the BJP, the Congress, the INLD-BSP combine, the CPI and the CPM. The Praja Parivartan Party was launched on Friday with the main aim of “strengthening brotherhood and saving the Constitution”.

“Our party will oppose anti-people policies of the state government. Elimination of the caste system and increasing brotherhood are high on agenda of the party,” said state president Kanta Alaria.

The Rashtriya Lokswaraj Party, floated by retired IPS officer Ranbir Singh Sharma, had been active over the issues of corruption and nepotism. Sharma had joined the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP) in 2014, but soon quit to float his own party.

Rrebel BJP MP from Kurukshetra Raj Kumar Saini had already announced that his political party, the Loktantra Suraksha Party, would fight next year’s elections.

Next year’s elections would also see the debut of AAP in Assembly polls. It had given the Assembly polls a miss in 2014. This time, AAP convener Arvind Kejriwal had been focusing on the state.
