Ajmer, 12th May. On the second day of the Jan Sangharsh Yatra on Friday, Congress MLA Sachin Pilot said that despite the heat, people are still coming out in support, and that he hopes the state government would take note of the issues he has raised.
The five-day Jan Sangharsh Yatra from Ajmer to Jaipur is being led by Pilot.
He began the yatra on Thursday in protest of the Rajasthan government’s inaction in the alleged corruption cases during the previous Vasundhara Raje-led BJP government in the state.
He said, “It is May and a very hot summer but still people are coming out on the streets because the issues I have raised are relevant. Issues of corruption and problems related to the future of our youths, affect us.”
“We hope our state government takes cognizance of the issues I have raised,” he further said.
Earlier in the day, Rajasthan Pradesh Congress Committee president Govind Singh Dotasara termed Sachin Pilot’s ‘Jan Sangharsh Yatra’ as a “personal journey” having no connection to the party.
Dotasara further stated that Pilot had not obtained prior authorization from the All India Congress Committee (AICC) or the Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC).
“It’s his (Sachin Pilot)’s personal Yatra (journey) and has nothing to do with the party. There was no prior permission sought by Pilot from the All India Congress Committee (AICC) or from Pradesh Congress Committee (PCC) before the Yatra. The Yatra with the party’s logo, and photographs of party leaders including Rahul Gandhi, Sonia Gandhi and Mallika Arjun Kharge, can be called an official one,” Rajasthan PCC Chief said.
Dotasara told reporters outside the Rajasthan Pradesh Congress Committee office in Jaipur, “The matter will be taken up with the Party high command.”
Sachin Pilot’s five-day Jan Sangharsh Yatra from Ajmer to Jaipur will make stops at several locales.
