Samajwadi Party (SP) supremo Mulayam Singh Yadav on Monday said a Third Front will surely be formed after the general elections in 2014.
"A Third Front will be formed after the elections. We are holding talks in this regard with Prakash Karatji and AB Bardhanji," he told media here.
Yadav, however, refused to disclose the name of Third Front's Prime Ministerial candidate.
"We have not decided on the Prime Ministerial candidate yet. The Third Front will take a call on its Prime Ministerial candidate after the elections," he said.
The Samajwadi Party chief is expected to meet CPI (M) General Secretary Prakash Karat later this month and hold discussion on the possibilities of a Third Front.
