While Arvind Kejriwal would announce the formation of a new political party on Tuesday, its name will be announced next month, his key associate has said.
Manish Sisodia said while the formation of the political outfit will be announced later in the day on Tuesday, its name will be announced on 26th November.
Kejriwal too has hinted a delay in announcing the name when he said that it will done after discussions.
“The movement which fought for a Jan Lokpal will now contest elections,” Sisodia said, adding that 26th November was decided as the date for naming the party as the Constituent Assembly had adopted the Constitution on that day in 1949.
He alleged that rumours were being spread that no announcement will be made regarding formation of a political party.
The vision of the party, Constitution and selection of members and candidates will be stated at the function, coinciding with Gandhi Jayanthi.
An internal Lokpal will also be appointed by the party to probe cases of impropriety. The name of internal Lokpal, a retired judge, will also be announced on Tuesday.
Ahead of the announcement, Kejriwal and Sisodia met Anna Hazare who is in the city to chalk out his future course of action with regard to an apolitical anti-corruption movement.
Kejriwal, who met Hazare for the first time after they split on the question of forming a political party, said, “We came to meet him as he is in Delhi. We have a relationship. There is no fight between us. He himself has said the goal is same though the paths are different”.
“We told him that whenever needed, we are there to help you. He told us media is creating an impression that there is a fight,” Kejriwal said after his 20-minute meeting with Hazare.
Hazare had fired a salvo at the Kejriwal-led group on Sunday, saying they had not responded to his questions on how to present a political alternative to the people in the fight against corruption and dubbed the path of politics as one “full of dirt”.
The path of “politics is not sacred and it is full of dirt” but the route of agitation is “sacred”, Hazare said on Sunday.
Kejriwal and Manish Sisodia arrived at N D Tiwari Bhavan near ITO where Hazare is holding a meeting with retired bureaucrats and others on the next course of action regarding his apolitical anti-corruption movement.
The meeting came a day ahead of the likely announcement by Kejriwal on formation of his party.
Hazare split with Kejriwal-led group on September 19, saying he was opposed to the movement taking a political plunge.
Contending that a big movement and not politics will give the country its future, Hazare had said that he told the pro-party group that the route of politics was “not the right direction”.
“I did not give an alternative. When I was told that an alternative has to be given, I said it is a good idea but I asked them to answer my 5-6 questions on how to provide an alternative. But I did not get those answers,” Hazare said.
Hazare was referring to the questions he raised like how will the members of a new party be selected, where the money will come from and how will the candidates for elections be selected among others.

Dear Arvind,
Be Bravo, but be utmost careful & cautious in moving the Dices on The Political Chess, because a single move can ruin your whole game plan.
First the name of the Party ought to be vibrant, as it effects like Mantras, is scientific.
Second the Manifesto of Party must be altogether different & most appealing to the nation as a whole, such as;
PROTECTION TO CHILDREN
ASSISTANCE TO GROWING
LIBERTY TO ADULTS
CAREDNESS TO AGEDS
COST FREE HOMES TO NEEDY
CORRUPTION & HASSLE-FREE SYSTEM
BRING BACK BLACK MONEY FROM ABROAD
WITH OVERALL SANRAKSHAN NOT AARKSHAN TO PEOLE AS A WHOLE
All the above things are possible to deliver, provided the nation is taken care of by the Representatives of the People as Trustees & not as Rulers, which was actually the vision of Mahatma Gandhi; when used to talk about The Policy of Trusteeship, but it is the irony of fate of this nation that his vision could not be adopted by his own followers, after his murder at the behest of own person/s, which truth also needs to be told to the nation; with facts & figures; which was forced to deem him as Rashtra Pita afterwards—dr.amritgaur
