Bharat Jodo Yatra against injustices, will not accept ‘two Hindustans’: Rahul Gandhi

TIL Desk/National/Kerala/ As Congress’ Bharat Jodo Yatra completed 19 days and 419 kilometres by Monday evening, party leader Rahul Gandhi said the foot march is against injustices like waiving off debts running into billions owed by rich businessmen while farmers or small traders are punished for loan defaults.

In his speech at the end of the day’s yatra in Koppam here, Gandhi said the BJP government at the Centre was favouring a few rich businessmen by waiving off their debts, while the same consideration was not being shown to the farmers, small traders and other businessmen.

He also tweeted about it in Hindi, saying: “Today billions of loans of big industrialists are being waived. But, if a farmer or small trader is unable to repay even a small loan, then he is put in jail by calling him a ‘defaulter’. Bharat Jodo Yatra is against every injustice. The country will not accept this ‘two Hindustan’ version of the king.”
