2017 Uttar Pradesh Assembly Election - Rahul Gandhi to begin begin 'Kisan Yatra' from Deoria to Delhi today Tuesday Sep 06,2016

In a bid to reinvigorate Congress and end its 27-year exile from power in the politically important Uttar Pradesh in the upcoming Assembly polls, Congress Vice President Rahul Gandhi will embark on the 2500 km-long Kisan Yatra from Deoria on Tuesday Sep 06,2016

"My yatra from Deoria to Delhi starting September 6 is a campaign to secure the rights of the poor, farmers and labourers in government resources," Gandhi's office said in a tweet.

The 'Deoria to Dilli yatra', which will start from Panchlari Kritpura village, will be marked by a door-to-door campaign of collecting 'Kisan Mangpatras' (charters of farmers demands), one-to-one interaction with farmers through Khaat (cot) Sabhas, a concept similar to Prime Minister Narendra Modi's 'Chai par Charcha' during the 2014 Lok Sabha polls, and roadside meetings
