“My yatra aims at uniting India and addressing five different kinds of injustice. People are subjected to financial wrongs, unemployment, inflation, privatisation of public sector units and social injustice against tribals, Dalits, women, farmers and the poor. These injustices have to be addressed,” Gandhi said.

“Last year, Bharat Jodo Yatra was undertaken from Kanyakumari to Kashmir to spread the message of love and affection against the prevailing atmosphere of hate. The Yatra had tasted success and drew a large crowd.Lakhs of people joined in the Yatra. Jharkhand, West Bengal and Odisha were left out from the Bharat Jod Yatra. People from these areas urged us to undertake Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra saying that hate was also being spread in their area,” Gandhi said.
“They told us that injustices are being meted out in their States and tribal lands were also being snatched and provided to industrial houses like the Adani group. This has prompted me undertake Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra from Manipur to Maharashtra this year,” added Gandhi.
