Third Front meet today

Special Correspondent

HYDERABAD: Telugu Desam Party president N. Chandrababu Naidu on Sunday said key decisions, including one on the Presidential election, would be taken at the Third Front meeting in Chennai on Monday.

Speaking to presspersons on the sidelines of a party camp here, Mr. Naidu said it would be better for the media to wait till Monday instead of resorting to speculations on the Third Front's stand on the Presidential election

"Allow us to first discuss the issue. We will have to take the present political situation into account before making our stand clear," he said.

The meeting would also deliberate on the form that the Front should take. Asked if more regional parties had shown interest, he said it would be known on Monday.

Mr. Naidu and the leaders of seven regional parties that comprise the Third Front will meet at the residence of the former Tamil Nadu Chief Minister, J. Jayalalithaa.
