The Uttar Pradesh unit of Congress on Monday said invitations will be extended to the Indian National Developmental Inclusive Alliance (INDIA) bloc allies to join the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra led by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi when it passes through U.P. tentatively between February 14 and 25.
In U.P., the Samajwadi Party (SP), which is the principal Opposition party in the Assembly, and the Rashtriya Lok Dal (RLD) are partners of the Congress in INDIA bloc.
“We will definitely extend our invitation to the INDIA bloc partners in U.P. for the yatra. The yatra will give a new direction to the Opposition in the State,” said Anil Yadav, U.P. Congress general secretary.
