Congress MP Gaurav Gogoi on Monday appealed to the people to extend support to his party’s ‘Bharat Jodo’ yatra.
Addressing presspersons here, the Congress leader along with another spokesperson Dolly Sharma said the yatra — to be launched on Wednesday — is being planned to reinforce social harmony and strengthen the foundational constitutional values. The 150-day-long yatra will cover 3,500 km from Kanyakumari to Kashmir passing through 10 States and Union Territories.
“This yatra is being held to ensure that the concerns and demands of people are heard. “The country is going through serious challenges due to the anti-people policies of the Union government. Through this yatra, a platform will be created to raise issues concerning people, mainly inflation and unemployment. I appeal to people to raise their voice fearlessly,” he said.
