The Chhattisgarh Congress’ ‘Azadi Gaurav Yatra’, which began on August 9 in all 90 constituencies of the state, culminated here on Independence Day on Monday, a party statement on Tuesday said.
The march covered 75 km in each constituency before ending at Gandhi maidan.
Addressing the function, Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel hit out at the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) and accused it of dividing the country and spreading hatred in the society.
He blamed both Savarkar and Jinnah responsible for the partition of the country. Now also the BJP and Rashtriya Swayamsevak Sangh (RSS) are indulging in dividing the country, Baghel was quoted as saying.
He alleged that BJP was spreading hatred in the country.
The Chief Minister also appealed to the state Congress to take out a march on the birth anniversary of Mahatma Gandhi on October 2.
Speaking on the occasion, AICC Chhattisgarh in-charge P.L. Punia said the BJP had never respected tricolour but was now showing off by taking out a Tiranga yatra.
