Patiala former MP and former AAP leader Dr Dharamvira Gandhi said that he would not contest in the upcoming 5 states assembly polls. But he said that he would be going to support Patiala former MP and former AAP leader Dr Dharamvira Gandhi 
Gandhi said that he would be also favoring Congress as right now there is a need to protect democracy in the country which had been facing a threat amid polarisation of voters, “I am not in a position to contest any election. I have crossed the age of 70 and I have already said goodbye to electoral politics. I still remain active, though,” said Dr Gandhi. 

On being asked if he was joining the Congress, he said, “I am not joining any party. Even if a party approaches me, I am firm on my view. I am favouring Congress at this stage as Congress needs to be supported, so that democracy in our country may be saved. The country needs to be saved from BJP, its old and new allies, and hidden allies like Kejriwal."
