Rahul Gandhi’s India Jodo Yatra Entered Uttar Pradesh this afternoon. His sister and general secretary of Congress at Loni border Priyanka Gandhi Welcomed. There was a huge crowd at the border. Enthused by the crowd, Priyanka Gandhi said that her brother is wearing the armor of truth, so his brother is neither afraid of cold nor of security. He has brought truth and harmony in the politics of discrimination and hatred. Priyanka Gandhi’s speech was encouraging. despite the cold wave Rahul Gandhi He is traveling wearing only a T-shirt and pants and sports shoes. Along with this, Congressmen had also demanded to increase their security in Uttar Pradesh. Elaborate arrangements have been made for their security. But despite heavy police force and cold, people joined at Loni border, it is a matter of increasing the enthusiasm of Congress.
Tour resumes after Christmas break
After the Christmas break of ten days, Rahul Gandhi is starting the journey again from today. The yatra started from the Hanuman temple located near the old Yamuna bridge. Later in the afternoon, Loni entered Uttar Pradesh from the border. They reached Loni border via Wazirabad bridge. Rahul Gandhi had requested SP national president Akhilesh Yadav and BSP supremo Mayawati to join his UP tour, but except for blessings, both the leaders have not given any consent to join the tour. However, farmer leader Rakesh Tikait and Shiv Sena (Uddhav Thackeray faction) spokesperson Priyanka Chaturvedi will definitely be with Rahul Gandhi in this journey. The most important in Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra is the UP Yatra. But he will only touch Uttar Pradesh. They will stay here for a total of three days and will re-enter Haryana via Baghpat, Barot and Shamli.
UP travel only 62 km in three days
Rahul’s UP journey will be of a total of 62 km. Priyanka Gandhi will also be with Rahul Gandhi in this journey. This visit of Rahul also passed through the area where there was a terrible riot in the year 2020 and 53 people were killed. Sonia Vihar, Jaffrabad area of ​​North West Delhi is considered communally very sensitive. Now it has to be seen, how much Rahul Gandhi can connect this area. If he would have had some impact in this area before entering Uttar Pradesh, then definitely its impact will be visible in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections. However, even today the Muslim minority trusts the Congress. But Congress has not yet been able to leave any impact in the entire voter class, so before voting Muslim voters also see the candidate of that political party, who can defeat BJP. The result is that despite having a vote bank, the Congress could not establish a majority in the last four decades. Even though there must have been its governments in the meantime. But the votes did not increase.
Journey into Jat Land from Day 108
This journey of Rahul Gandhi started on 7th September and it was decided that this journey of 150 days would end after reaching Jammu. The journey also took a break in between. Today is the 108th day of the journey. The yatra will last for three days in UP and will pass only through Jat dominated areas. Don’t know why those who made the route of the yatra considered Uttar Pradesh so unimportant! Uttar Pradesh has 80 Lok Sabha seats, and once upon a time this state has been a stronghold of the Congress. Even at that time there is a history of defeat of Congress in Baghpat, Barot and Shamli. But those deciding the yatra route have touched the same corner of UP, while the same yatra lasted for 17 days in Telangana, yet the Congress candidate’s deposit was forfeited in a by-election held there last month.
No effect in Rajasthan
Last month the yatra was in Rajasthan. There is a Congress government there, yet the yatra did not show any significant effect. At the time when the Yatra was passing through Rajasthan, at the same time the Ashok Gehlot government of Congress was also seen to be wavering there. I was told by a Congress leader who won from Bharatpur that the farewell of the Congress is certain in the 2023 assembly elections. The business class there has a fascination for the BJP. Apart from this, Vasundhara Raje has her own personal influence. If BJP keeps Vasundhara ahead, then Ashok Gehlot will remain behind. Arjun Singh Shekhawat of Jaipur and Mukesh Rahar of Jodhpur said that Ashok Gehlot’s work is fine, but the leaders of his own party are determined to topple his government. His reference was towards Sachin Pilot.
Stormy tours of Shah and Akhilesh
It is also interesting that just after Rahul Gandhi’s visit to UP, on January 16 and 17, Union Home Minister Amit Shah is undertaking an intensive tour from Purvanchal to the western region of Uttar Pradesh. Apart from these, former Chief Minister of Uttar Pradesh Akhilesh Yadav will conduct contact campaign by visiting villages in Yadav dominated districts of central Uttar Pradesh. Just when the by-elections were held, SP candidate from Mainpuri and Akhilesh Yadav’s wife Dimple Yadav reached the Lok Sabha with a record majority.
This is an indication that the SP’s stronghold in central Uttar Pradesh is impregnable. But on the contrary, former Congress President Rahul Gandhi will just touch three districts of West UP. Rakesh Tikait may be a farmer leader, but the voters have never been with him in this Jat dominated area. Here the RLD party of Chaudhary Charan Singh’s grandson Jayant Chaudhary has a special influence. This is the reason why RLD’s Madan Bhaiya won the by-election last month and reached the Legislative Assembly from here.
Where he wanted to stay, Rahul would leave just by touching
There is no doubt that even today Congress is the only alternative to BJP. And without Nehru-Gandhi family Congress is meaningless. But the family lacks charismatic and grassroots leaders. Especially the kitchen cabinet of Rahul Gandhi, he does not understand the mindset of the voters. Otherwise, they do not consider UP and Bihar so important in Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra.
The Uttar Pradesh where they were supposed to stay, they are leaving just by touching it. Either there are differences in this Gandhi family of Congress itself or Rahul’s strategists are mindless. It is also said that the command of Uttar Pradesh is with Congress General Secretary Priyanka Gandhi. Perhaps that’s why UP did not get importance in Rahul Gandhi’s visit. But if such differences continue, then what will happen to the Congress in UP in the 2024 Lok Sabha elections! It may be known that in Uttar Pradesh, the Congress got only one seat in the 2019 Lok Sabha elections, which belonged to Sonia Gandhi. The then President Rahul Gandhi had lost the election from Amethi.
Rahul had to give more time in UP-Bihar
In such a situation, Rahul should have given extra time in Uttar Pradesh in his journey. The examination of the upcoming Lok Sabha elections will be from UP only. The 2014 and 2019 Lok Sabha elections have been unprecedented defeats for the Congress. That’s why it is UP that decides who will rule the country. The BJP has greatly weakened the mass base of the Congress in the last eight years. One reason for this was the lack of grassroots leaders in the Congress, and the other reason was the incompetent advisors of Rahul Gandhi. They kept on distancing Rahul Gandhi from the truth. While Indira Gandhi and Rajiv Gandhi did not have this senselessness. Rajiv Gandhi was completely new in politics and also eternal but he used to connect everyone with his kindness, while his mother Indira Gandhi was an expert player of backgammon in politics. But the problem of Rahul Gandhi is that he is unable to understand politics.
