Across the country, there are crores of citizens, lakhs of organisations and thousands of movements who fight for justice at the grassroots, he said.
“Every day, they work for better opportunities for youths, to empower women, for workers and farmers, for the equal rights of Dalits, Advasis, and backward communities, and many more marginalised sections and groups,” Ramesh said.
The Congress invites each individual, every civil society organisation and all movements that stand for justice and protecting Babasaheb Ambedkar’s Constitution to join the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra from Manipur to Mumbai on 14 January, 2024, the Congress general secretary said.
