Hindustani Awam Morcha (translation: Indian People's Front; abbreviated as HAM) is an Indian political party, formally launched on 8 May 2015 by former Chief Minister of Bihar, Jitan Ram Manjhi, who left the Janata Dal (United) along with 18 others to form the party following the 2015 Bihar political crisis.[3][4] The name of the party was later changed to Hindustani Awam Morcha (Secular) (HAM-S).[5][6] In July 2015, the Election Commission recognised the HAM as a political party.[7] The election symbol of the party is a telephone.[8][9][10]
