The 'Voter Adhikar Yatra,' launched by Rahul Gandhi, is more than a typical political procession. It's promoted by Congress as a moral and constitutional mission aimed at preserving democracy, ensuring the integrity of the 'one person-one vote' principle, and protecting marginalized voices from electoral fraud.
Beginning in Bihar's Sasaram, the Yatra includes notable participants such as Congress President Mallikarjun Kharge, RJD chief Lalu Prasad, and CPI leader Dipankar Bhattacharya. This initiative comes amid allegations from Congress regarding voter disenfranchisement driven by the BJP, facilitated through the Special Intensive Revision of electoral rolls.
Set to cover over 1,300 kilometers across 20-plus districts, the Yatra will highlight issues of electoral justice and democracy. The journey, culminating in a significant rally in Patna on September 1st, echoes past yatras, emphasizing change and preserving constitutional integrity.
