Team Anna to tour villages ahead of July 25 Anshan
In a run up to the indefinite fast beginning July 25th, 2012, Team Anna would take an extensive tour of villages (“Gram Sanvad Yatra”)
in the various districts of Western Uttar Pradesh. The ‘Gram Sanvad
Yatra’ will begin from June 18 at Rajghat after paying homage to Mahatma
Ghandhi. The plan for the proposed tour was
formulated during a meeting of social activists from 12 districts who
met in Ghaziabad today.
The
yatra would be conducted in 4 phases and will end on July 12. In the
first phase — from June 18 to 22 – the yatra would travel to villages in
Saharanpur via Bhagpat and Shamli districts. In the second phase, from
June 25-29, villages around Meerut, Muzzafarnagar, Bijnor and Roorkee
will be covered. In the third phase, from July 2 to 6, the yatra would
cover villages in Noida, Bulandshehar and Aligarh. The fourth and last
phase of yatra would take place in Ghaziabad, Hapur, JP Nagar and
Moradabad from 8-12 July.
Team
Anna member Manish Sisodia would participate in all the four phases of
the yatra. Gopal Rai, Sanjay Singh and other members are also expected
to join the yatra. During the yatra, awareness would be raised on the
corruption charges against 15 cabinet ministers. The charges against PM
under whom Rs. 1.80 lakh coal scam, considered to be one of the biggest
scams, would also be discussed in detail. Apart from the Cabinet
Ministers, irregularities of party supremos like Mulayam Singh, Mayawati
and other BJP leaders would also be discussed.
All
the activists present at the meeting decided that they would themselves
bear the expenses incurred during the yatra in their districts. A team
of young Nukkad Natak (street play) performers from Delhi University
would travel along with the yatra.
