Punjab Front
Punjab Front is a political party formed by merging various splinter groups, smaller regional forums, fronts and political parties led by MP Dharamvir Gandhi.
It is the official name given to the much-anticipated Mahagathbandhan which was formed in Punjab, India after a day-long series of deliberations by like-minded groups and political organisations. The announcement of the Front was made by Gandhi at the end of the "Round Table Conference" in Chandigarh on Sunday 26 September 2016.
The party decided at a meeting in November 2016 to campaign for the enforcement of the Right To Education Act of 2009. The party claims that both government and private schools and colleges are guilty of discriminatory admission practices and are not managed in accordance with the law.
In December 2016 the party announced fifteen candidates to contest the 2017 Punjab Legislative Assembly elections.
For 2019 general election party contested only from Patiala along with Punjab Democratic Alliance. However party stood at third place.
