Mumbai, Jul 18 (UNI) Maharashtra Congress president Nana Patole said on Monday that the party will take out ‘padyatras’ in all districts of the state from August 9-15, coinciding with the Quit India Movement and Independence Day, followed by a ‘Bharat Jodo’ campaign on October two.
He said that just as Mahatma Gandhi had given a call to the British to ‘quit India’ 80 years ago on Aug 9, 1942, the Congress will now give a slogan of ‘Save the Constitution, Save the Country’ and spread the message across the state right up to the village levels.
During the 75-km-long ‘padyatras’ in each district, Congress workers and leaders will also explain the anti-people decisions of the Bharatiya Janata Party-led government at the Centre, he informed.
