The Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra from Manipur to Mumbai is being held to highlight the “anyay kaal [era of injustice]” of the last 10 years of the Narendra Modi-led government, the Congress said on Saturday ahead of the yatra’s formal launch.
Addressing a press conference at Manipur’s capital, Congress communications chief Jairam Ramesh said that the biggest challenge before the country is that it is facing an ideology that believes in polarisation, economic inequalities, and political authoritarianism.
Mr. Ramesh insisted that the yatra is not electoral, but is rather aimed at protecting and preserving Constitutional values. “The Prime Minister shows the golden dreams of ‘amrit kaal’ but what is the reality of the last 10 years — ‘anyay kaal’. No mention of ‘anyay kaal’ is made while big boasts of ‘amrit kaal’ are projected,” he said.
