Rahul Gandhi joins 'Palayan Roko Naukri Do' campaign in Begusarai to support Bihar’s youth

Leader of Opposition in Lok Sabha and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi joined the 'Palayan Roko Naukri Do (Stop Migration, Give Jobs)' campaign in Begusarai today, i.e. Monday (7 April). It has been started by Congress youth leader and former JNU president Kanhaiya Kumar. Kanhaiya is a resident of Begusarai. Rahul had urged the marchers to join it wearing white T-shirts. Many youths were seen in white T-shirts in the crowd.

After Begusarai, Rahul will leave for Patna to participate in the 'Samvidhan Suraksha Sammelan'. The march organized in Begusarai aims to raise awareness about the large-scale migration of youth from Bihar due to lack of employment opportunities. Through this march, Gandhi is indicating his solidarity with the youth in their fight for jobs and better opportunities in the state.

According to the information, Rahul Gandhi reached Patna airport at 9:50 am and left for Begusarai at 10:10 am. After participating in the padyatra, he will return to Patna at 1 pm. On his return, he will attend the 'Samvidhan Suraksha Sammelan' at Sri Krishna Memorial Hall. After the conference, Gandhi will meet Congress leaders and the local community at Sadakat Ashram, consider their problems and talk about the burning issues facing the youth of the area and return to Delhi in the evening.

His visit comes ahead of the Bihar assembly elections, where the Congress is expected to contest the elections along with a united opposition front. Earlier on Sunday, Rahul Gandhi shared a video message on social media to unite the youth of Bihar.

In his post, Rahul Gandhi wrote, "Young friends of Bihar, I am coming to Begusarai on 7 April, to walk shoulder to shoulder with you in the 'Palayan Roko Naukri Do’ Campaign. Its purpose is to make the whole world aware of the feelings of the youth of Bihar, their struggle, their pain. You too come wearing a white T-shirt, ask questions, raise your voice. Put pressure on the government for your rights, remove it. Join the white T-shirt movement by registering here."
