Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra

‘UP Ke 2 Ladke’ Akhilesh, Rahul Gandhi Come Together For Nyay Yatra In Agra After Finalising Seat-sharing!

On Wednesday, the former chief minister of Uttar Pradesh and SP chief announced to unitedly contest the upcoming Lok Sabha polls under the banner of the I.N.D.I.A. bloc in Uttar Pradesh!

Samajwadi Party chief Akhilesh Yadav on Sunday joined Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra in Uttar Pradesh’s Agra days after the two parties of the INDIA bloc finalised seat-sharing for the upcoming Lok Sabha elections.

Rahul Gandhi and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra welcomed the former chief minister for joining the yatra. Yadav had earlier said that he would not join the yatra until an understanding for seat-sharing is reached between the two parties.

According to the agreement, Congress will contest 17 out of 80 Lok Sabha seats in Uttar Pradesh, which sends the maximum number of lawmakers from any state to the Lower House of Parliament.

POOR FACING INJUSTICE: RAHUL GANDHI

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi addressed the public at Agra amidst the ongoing Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra. He said, “If you are poor then you will face injustice in this country 24 hours… The reason for hatred is injustice, so we have added the word justice in our journey.”

Talking about the alliance’s objective for the country, Gandhi said, “It’s been a year since we completed the Bharat Jodo Yatra and walked 4,000 km from Kanyakumari to Kashmir. During that yatra, a person told me that ‘you are trying to open a Mohabbat Ki Dukan in Nafrat Ka Bazaar. Now, this is what we, along with Akhilesh Yadav and Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, are trying to do again.”

INDIA BLOC’S UP DEAL AHEAD OF LS POLLS

As per the deal, Congress will field its candidates in Rai Bareily, Amethi, Kanpur Nagar, Fatehpur Sikri, Bansgaon, Saharanpur, Prayagraj, Maharajganj, Varanasi, Amroha, Jhanshi, Bulandshahar, Ghaziabad, Mathura, Sitapur, Barabanki and Deoria Lok Sabha seats.

Rai Bareli and Amethi used to be Congress strongholds for decades. The grand old party, however, lost the Amethi seat to the BJP in the 2019 elections and Sonia Gandhi, who represented Rai Bareli four times in Lok Sabha, will not be seeking re-election from the constituency after she was elected to Rajya Sabha recently.

PM Modi’s jibe at Rahul Gandhi for ‘nashedi yuva’ remark: ‘I was shocked!

In a swipe at Rahul Gandhi, PM Modi said, “Jinke aapne hosh thhikane nahi hai, wo UP ke, mere kashi ke bachcho ko nashedi keh rahe hai”

Prime Minister Narendra Modi on Friday said he was shocked when he heard the ‘nashedi’ word used to describe the youth of Uttar Pradesh. Without naming Rahul Gandhi, PM Modi said the prince of the Congress family said UP’s youth are ‘nashedi’. “They spent the decade abusing Modi. But now they are talking out their frustration on the people. Jinke aapne hosh thhikane nahi hai, wo UP ke, mere kashi ke bachcho ko nashedi keh rahe hai (those who are not in their senses are calling UP’s youth addicts)” PM Modi said strongly condemning the comment which Rahul Gandhi recently made during his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra.

Now that Uttar Pradesh is progressing, the ‘yuvraj’ of the Congress family said that the youth of Uttar Pradesh are addicts. What is this language,” PM Modi said adding that no one will forget this insult of the youth by the INDI alliance. “A person who belongs to a dynasty is always threatened by the common youth force. They only like those who always praise them. And now they have another reason to not like Uttar Pradesh after Ram Mandir’s inauguration. They do not like the new face of Kashi and Ayodhya. I did not know Congress had so much hatred towards Lord Ram. They can’t see or think beyond their family and vote bank,” PM Modi said.

On the INDIA bloc, PM Modi said they come together before every election and then abuse each other after they get ‘nil battey sannata’. “But they do not know that this time they will have to struggle to save even their deposits. UP has also decided to give all seats to NDA. The third term of Modi will be the strongest one in which India will see a new horizon in all aspects. India will become the third largest economy in the next five years,” PM Modi said.

Why Rahul Gandhi said UP youth are ‘drunk, addict’

When Rahul Gandhi addressed a rally in Amethi when his Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra was passing through his former constituency, he raised the issue of unemployment. “You (the youth of the country) have no work. You are only waving posters seeking employment (he showed one such poster held by a worker standing beside him). I saw in Varanasi that young men were lying on the road drunk. This is UP’s future — drinking and dancing on the road at night. On the other hand, there is Ram Mandir. You will see Ambani, Adani there but not a backward, not a Dalit. Why? Because that is not your place. Your place is on the street begging for jobs. Their work is to count money.”

It was the same speech in which Rahul Gandhi asked a media person whether the owner of his company was an OBC or a Dalit. Then Rahul Gandhi called the media person near him and said, “His owner is a billionaire and will never publish news about Dalit, unemployment. Paper leak, price rise, unemployment are your future.”

Congress claims that the Manipur government “declined” to allow Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra from Imphal!

The ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ was scheduled to begin on January 14 from Hatta Kangjeibung in the Imphal East district in Manipur!

Congress claimed on Wednesday that the Manipur government has “declined” to give permission to Rahul Gandhi to commence his ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ from Imphal East district. The ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ was scheduled to begin on January 14 from Hatta Kangjeibung in the Imphal East district in Manipur. Manipur Pradesh Congress Committee president Keisham Megachandra said the decision was “unfortunate” and “violation of people’s rights”, according to PTI.

“We met Chief Minister N Biren Singh and sought permission for the venue of ‘Bharat Joro Nyay Yatra’ at Hatta Kangjeibung in Imphal East district from where the rally is scheduled to be flagged off. However, the chief minister has declined to permit the same,” Keisham Megachandra said.

A “critial” law and order situation has prevailed in Manipur ever since ethnic violence broke out in the state in May 2023. The second leg of Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ is set to begin on January.

Chief Minister N Biren Singh had said on Tuesday that the matter is under “active consideration” and a decision will be taken on it after receiving reports from security agencies. Addressing the reporters on the sidelines of an event, Biren Singh said the law and order situation in Manipur is “very critical”.
