Former Punjab chief minister Amarinder Singh, who is set to launch his new political party, said that he has applied for a party name and a symbol, and an announcement will be made after the Election Commission's approval.

Singh had last week said he would soon launch his own party, and that he was hopeful of a seat adjustment with the BJP provided the ongoing farmers' stir against farm laws was resolved in their interest. "I am forming a party. But I can't tell you the name right now. When the Election Commission approves a name and symbol, only then I can tell you. Let's wait for the EC to approve," he said addressing a press conference.
