Bharat Jodo Yatra: As Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra completed 100 days, Congress president Mallikarjun Kharge congratulated the party on the milestone. To mark the occasion, he laid down the groundwork for the Congress’ economic agenda for the 2024 Lok Sabha Elections.
Kharge congratulated the Rahul Gandhi-led walkathon, and said, “The Bharat Jodo Yatra has completed a historic milestone today after completing 100 days on the road. Lakhs have participated, supported, and expressed their faith in the yatra. We communicate directly with the people through the Yatra, such as youngsters, farmers, socially deprived persons, women, social activists, former soldiers, and every citizen of our society.”
Sukhu to join yatra
Significantly, the newly elected chief minister of Himachal Pradesh, Sukhvinder Singh Sukhu, is set to join Gandhi in the yatra.
Sukhu noted that following Congress’ win in Himachal Pradesh, all 40 victorious MLAs of Himachal will participate in the yatra on Friday to express gratitude towards the Congress leadership.
Underlining the motives behind the Yatra, Kharge spelt out Congress’ plans for its 2024 agenda. He said, “The Yatra is set to unite our country on three issues. First, is the hatred spreading across the country with the increasing atrocities against SC, ST, OBC, and minorities. Over the past eight years, the country has been suffering under the burden of extreme poverty and unemployment. Many people have given us suggestions for these economic problems, which would be used to set up our economic agenda for the 2024 Lok Sabha.”
Kharge denounces BJP
“The dictatorial rule has become prevalent in the country. In their greed for power, the BJP has weakened our democratic institutions. Everyone is speaking out against this. The Bharat Jodo Yatra has become a national people’s movement,” said Kharge.
The yatra is currently covering Rajasthan where it will cover about 500km over 18 days before entering Haryana on December 21.
The yatra will enter Delhi on December 24 and, following a break of about eight days, will continue on to Uttar Pradesh, Haryana, Punjab, before it reaches its final destination, Jammu and Kashmir.
The yatra has so far covered 42 districts in eight states. It still has to cover over 730 kilometres before the yatra ends.
