The All Malaysia Indian Progressive Front (Malay: Barisan Kemajuan India Se-Malaysia, Tamil: அகில மலேசிய இந்தியர் முன்னேற்ற முன்னனி, romanized: Aṉaittu malēciya intiya muṟpōkku muṉṉaṇi), abbrev: AMIPF, or better known just as the Indian Progressive Front, is a Malaysian political party. It is a splinter party of the Malaysian Indian Congress formed by M. G. Pandithan in 1990. The party was a component of the defunct opposition coalition, Gagasan Rakyat from 1990 to 1996, but it currently supports the Barisan Nasional coalition although it is not a member.[1] IPF had failed in its application to join BN after an objection from MIC.[2][3]
