On Friday, Congress leader Sachin Pilot’s “Jan Sangharsh Yatra” entered its second day amidst political commotion in Rajasthan.The 125-kilometer yatra from Ajmer to Jaipur concentrates on pressing issues like paper leakage and corruption. Pilot walked about 25 kilometres on the first day from Ajmer to Tolamal village in Kishangarh to challenge Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot and the party’s top leadership as the state assembly elections draw closer.
“Even though it’s May and the height of summer, people are still out on the streets because the concerns I’ve brought up are still important. We are impacted by issues with corruption and issues with the future of our youth. On the second day of his yatra, Pilot said, “We hope our state government will take notice of the issues I have raised.
According to reports, the five-day yatra mounts further pressure on the party leadership as it hopes to retain the state in the elections at the end of the year. “I am taking out this yatra to raise my voice, to hear your voice, and to become the voice of the people,” Pilot said at the start of the ‘padyatra’.Earlier on Tuesday (May 9), Pliot announced that he will take out a ‘Jan Sangharsh Yatra’ against the “inaction of the Rajasthan government” with regard to the alleged corruption during the previous Vasundhara Raje-led BJP government in the state.
