People's Party of Punjab

Following a non-impressive performance in 2012, it decided to dissolve the organizational structure in 2014 and make attempts to rejuvenate the party.

[6] The party forged an alliance with the Indian National Congress to contest the 2014 Indian general election with Manpreet contesting the Bathinda Parliamentary seat[7][8] against Harsimrat Kaur Badal.

In 2015, amidst speculation that it would merge with the Aam Aadmi Party, the PPP denied talk of its merger.

The Sanjha Morcha was unsuccessful in winning any of the seats it had contested despite garnering an approximate share of 6% of the total votes polled.

Unlike the Shiromani Akali Dal from where Manpreet Singh Badal and a majority of his followers came, PPP maintained a distance from Sikh political affairs, and aimed to emerge as a secular[13] third-front alternative in Punjab politics, aligning with various left parties.
