Cong focussed like Arjun at swayamvar: Ramesh on BJY

September 08, 2022 09:33

Jairam Ramesh, Congress, on BJP's criticism of the party's Bharat Jodo Yatra: "I don't want to waste my time countering the arguments from the other side. There will always be professional critics, arm-chair critics, people who will raise questions in India for everything you do.

"We are focussed like Arjun was focussed on the fish when he went for Draupadi's swayamvar. We have only one single vision right now -- to ensure the successful completion of Bharat Jodo Yatra.

"It's a Bharat Jodo Yatra to combat divisive politics of BJP, to awaken the country to dangers faced by India because of economic inequalities, because of social polarisation and because of political centralisation.

"This is also a Yatra that will strengthen the party organisation, mobilise party workers and the entire party is ensuring that the Bharat Jodo Yatra is a resounding and outstanding success."
