Days after agreeing to a seat-sharing agreement for the next Lok Sabha elections, Samajwadi Party (SP) president Akhilesh Yadav joined Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s ongoing Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra in Agra, Uttar Pradesh, on Sunday.
Speaking to the crowd at the Nyay Yatra, Yadav stated that preserving democracy and the constitution would be the main task in the upcoming days.
“…I would like to thank the public…In the coming days, the biggest challenge is to save the democracy, and the Constitution, to fulfill the dreams of Dr BR Ambedkar, that has been ruined by the BJP… ‘BJP haatao, desh bachao,” Yadav said.
Congresswoman Priyanka Gandhi Vadra joined the yatra in Aligarh earlier today. After traveling through Amroha, Sambhal, Bulandshahr, Aligarh, Hathras, and Aligarh division, the yatra entered the division of Agra, where the chief of the Samajwadi Party joined Rahul Gandhi to deliver a joint public speech.
Vadra questioned the BJP’s ten-year rule, raising issues such as inflation, farmer protests, and youth unemployment, while Rahul Gandhi maintained that the Modi government is constantly causing injustice to the poor in India.
“BJP has been in power for 10 years. Many big events such as the G20 Summit took place, everyone said that the respect of the country is increasing due to such events, even we agree to it, but I want to ask, is the respect of the country not connected with the young, our policemen, and students? There are no jobs for the youth, farmers are still sitting on roads, inflation is a burden for the people of the country,” Vadra said.

Rahul Gandhi and Akhilesh Yadav’s meeting will mirror a similar event that occurred in Agra seven years prior, when the two leaders conducted a 12-kilometer road show in the Taj city in advance of the UP 2017 assembly elections.
But in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, the BJP won all four of the parliamentary seats that the yatra traversed on Sunday: Aligarh, Hathras (reserved), Agra (reserved), and Fatehpur Sikri.
