The four day long Kisan Nyay Pad Yatra measuring about 100 kilometers from Baran to Jhalawar, on Friday concluded, in the home turf of state chief minister Vasundhara Raje with infusing a fresh energy and enthusiasm among the party workers and claimed to be succeeding to mount pressure and cause concern on the faces of ruling leaders.

State party chief Sachin Pilot, in most aggressive gesture, defying the state BJP government said that they would not allow Raje government to wait for the election to waive off the farmers loan so that it reap the profit in elections.

The state government must kneel down to waive off the farmers loan today or very soon, he said. The government cannot misguide the public and farmers by crunching out false and fabricated data and by threatening to the families of those farmers who have committed suicide, he said. The ruling party leaders, instead of wiping out the tears and consoling the families of those farmers committed suicide for loan and crop damage, refused to acknowledge their deaths. The farmers and public is not pleading for mercy but demanding the rightful to the government, they elected and installed on the ruling chair, he said. When the demand is raised and the question is asked, farmers are shot down as was done in Mandsaur in BJP ruled MP where six farmers were shot down because they raised the voice for their demand, Pilot said. Committees are formed for the rightful demands, he pinched at the state government for having formed a committee on loan waiver to farmers.

Pilot, on the concluding day of the Yatra, along with leaders of opposition Rameshwar Dudi, deputy leader of opposition in state assembly Ramesh Meena and several other party leaders also addressed the public meeting attended by a huge gathering. AICC general secretary and in charge of the state Congress Avinash Pandey, AICC secretary Tarun Kumar, Vivek Bansal and Quazi Nizamuddin were also present on this occasion and addressed the gathering.   

The farmers and the public, during the four days of Yatra, has realized that only Congress is the party of people and can come on roads for public and farmers woes, said Dheeraj Gujar, party MLA from Jahazpur. The Kisan Nyay Pad Yatra on concluding day measured around 10 kilometers from Mandawar village and reached Radha Raman Stadium at Jhalawar district headquarter. The Yatra here turned into a large gathering.
