Will forge third front against Centre: Chautala

“People are upset by its anti-people policies and want a change”

Describing the BJP-led government at the Centre as “anti-farmer and anti-people”, former Haryana Chief Minister and Indian National Lok Dal (INLD) supremo Om Prakash Chautala said on Tuesday that he would soon start meeting political leaders towards forging a ‘third front’. “People are upset due to the anti-people policies of the BJP government and want a change. The biggest need today is to change the present regime. I’ll establish contact with the leaders of all Opposition parties at the national level and form a strong third front against this corrupt Central government,” he said here. Mr. Chautala, who was recently released from jail after serving a 10-year sentence in a recruitment scam, said he will try to meet leaders of all political Opposition parties before September 25, the birth anniversary of former Deputy Prime Minister Devi Lal , to forge an alternative to the “corrupt BJP government at the Centre”.
