Inside Nitin Nabin's Padyatra Ahead of INDIA Bloc's Ramlila Maidan Rally
· India · NDTV, Indian Express
Bihar's Rural Development Minister Nitin Nabin leads a padyatra that commenced on Saturday, moving through multiple districts ahead of the INDIA alliance's massive public rally scheduled for November 1 at Delhi's Ramlila Maidan. The foot march is specifically designed to counter the opposition bloc's 'vote theft' claim, which alleges that electoral arrangements in Bihar and other states have disadvantaged opposition candidates. The padyatra kicked off in the Narkatia constituency of Purvi Champaran district and will traverse several districts before culminating in the capital. Nabin is positioning the ground-level campaign as a direct rebuttal to the INDIA alliance's allegations regarding the upcoming assembly elections.
Why it matters
