As the Congress' 'Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra' progressed through Assam, the party claimed that it faced more problems in BJP-ruled states during its second day in the state compared to its first yatra. The ongoing yatra, led by MP Rahul Gandhi, accused Assam CM Himanta Biswa Sarma of corruption. Gandhi alleged that the BJP aims to confine tribal people to forests, contrasting Congress' recognition of tribal rights. The yatra, starting from Manipur on January 14, will end in Mumbai on March 20. The first 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' occurred from Kanyakumari to Kashmir in 2022-23.
Rahul Gandhi continued to level corruption charges against Himanta Biswa Sarma, claiming that CMs of other BJP-ruled states could learn corruption from Sarma. Gandhi alleged that the BJP government was taking away tribal lands across the country. The yatra faced controversies in Assam, with an FIR filed against its deviation from permitted routes.
Gandhi emphasized that the first 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' was successful, leading to demands for a similar march from east to west. He criticized the BJP and RSS, claiming they want to govern the country from Delhi, while Congress supports local governance. Gandhi accused Sarma of being the 'most corrupt' CM for the second day, claiming he could give lessons on corruption to other BJP CMs.
Congress leaders, including Gaurav Gogoi and Jairam Ramesh, highlighted corruption as a key issue during the yatra's progress through Assam. They claimed the first yatra didn't face as many difficulties in BJP-ruled states as the second one in Assam. The yatra, facing threats of FIR and arrests, sought blessings at a Vaishnavite monastery in Majuli. It will continue its journey through Arunachal Pradesh and Assam, covering a total of 833 km across 17 districts.
