ITANAGAR: The Arunachal Pradesh Congress Committee (APCC) President Nabam Tuki Saturday flagged off a two-day Bharat Jodo Yatra (BJY) organized by the Youth Congress to mark a protest against the Anti-Democratic BJP government and also to spread the message of love, unity, and fraternity among the citizens of the country. The yatra started from Banderdewa to Nahalragun and ended during the day, and it will continue from Naharlagun to Itanagar on Sunday. Speaking to the reporters, the Indian National Youth Congress (INYC) state in-charge, Nur Sofiqul Wazid, said that besides the aim and objective of the foot march, the idea was also to commemorate the birth anniversary of Congress leader Rahul Gandhi. It was Rahul Gandhi who initiated the BJY in the entire country to unite the country against the ‘divisive politics’ of the BJP-led Government of India.
The people should understand the idea of the initiative and accordingly participate to create a world where everyone, irrespective of state, region, community, or colour, is treated equally. “The public should also understand that it is the BJP government that makes false promises. It is the BJP that is emphasizing divisive politics in the country. Congress in the country and in the state of Arunachal Pradesh was always a welfare government,” he said. He also said that in every district of the country, a foot march is being held to commemorate the birth anniversary of Rahul Gandhi. Meanwhile, APYC President Tarh Jhony said that the yatra organized today has nothing to do with the ensuing assembly election but more to create a bond of love and gain the trust of the general public.
He said the aim of this yatra is to unite India, to come together, and to strengthen our nation. The yatra has already received an overwhelming response. It is a movement to raise their voice against the economic, social, and political issues that are dividing our nation today. “The yatra seeks to address rampant unemployment and inflation, the politics of hate and division, and the over-centralization of our political system.” He added that, following the weather conditions in the state, the yatra is for two days.
