Lucknow: In a bid to woo the electorate in
rural areas ahead of Assembly elections next year, Rashtriya
Lok Dal (RLD) will launch a month long yatra from September 1,
a party official said here today.
The Chaudhary Charan Singh Gram Swaraj Yatra will cover a
large number of villages in various districts over a period of
one month, RLD spokesman Anil Dubey said.
Dubey said that the decision in this regard was taken
yesterday at the party's zonal committee meeting presided by
state president Baba Hardev Singh.
During the meeting, support was extended to Anna Hazare's
campaign against corruption and it was said that there was no
logic behind his arrest, he added.
