The activists of ‘Swaraj Abhiyan’ started a ‘Shiksha Swaraj Yatra’ from the protest site here on Tuesday. The Yatra aims to bring a mass awareness for ushering radical changes in the education sector was flagged off by the convener of the Swaraj Abhiyan, Kamla Pant.
The 20 day Yatra would cover all the 13 districts of Uttarakhand. Speaking on the occasion, she said that the people of the State are fed up with politicisation of education. Pant said that there is an urgent need to make education and development as electoral issues so that the political parties are forced to toe the public opinion.
