Will form national front of regional parties: Dhindsa

Chandigarh, December 14

Claiming that its workers were supporting the farmers’ protest on the ground, the Shiromani Akali Dal (Democratic) today said it would try to form a national front with like-minded regional parties.

The Shiromani Akali Dal led by the Badals has already held parleys with the several regional parties.

Opposing the Badals, the Sukhdev Singh Dhindsa led SAD (Democratic) said they were the real Akali Dal. The party leaders paid obeisance at Gurdwara Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Sahib, Sector 15, on the occasion of 100th foundation day of the Shiromani Akali Dal.

Responding to questions from the media regarding an alliance with other parties for the 2022 Punjab elections, Dhindsa said the party would take a decision in this regard when the elections approach, but made it clear that his party would not ally with the BJP, Congress and the Badals under any circumstances.

“Alliances with political parties which are in line with the party’s ideology will be considered,”

he added. — TNS
