The Congress alleged on Wednesday that the Manipur government has refused to grant permission for Rahul Gandhi to launch his ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ from Imphal East district.

The yatra was scheduled to begin on January 14 from Hatta Kangjeibung in Imphal East district. Keisham Megachandra, the president of Manipur Pradesh Congress Committee, expressed disappointment, calling the decision “unfortunate” and a “violation of people’s rights,” as reported by PTI.

“We met Chief Minister N Biren Singh and sought permission for the venue of ‘Bharat Joro Nyay Yatra’ at Hatta Kangjeibung in Imphal East district from where the rally is scheduled to be flagged off. However, the chief minister has declined to permit the same,” Keisham Megachandra said.
