Union Home Minister Amit Shah would be arriving in Tripura tomorrow and launch the state-wide Jana Vishwas Rath Yatra as part of BJP’s high decibel campaign ahead of the Assembly elections early this year.

Tripura BJP president Rajeeb Bhattacharjee had said that two rath (chariot) yatras would start – one from South Tripura and the other from North Tripura districts and both shall be flagged off by Home Minister Shah.

Home Minister Shah will flag off the Yatra at 11 AM from Dharmanagar, the extreme northern border of Tripura, and the HM will flag off the Yatra at 3 PM from Sabroom, the southern side of the state.

The Jana Vishwas Yatra is part of the ruling BJP’s poll activities to boost the party’s workers and also talk about the development activities undertaken by the BJP government in the state. The Yatra is expected to connect over 10 lakh people. The Yatra will cover 1000 Km in all 60 constituencies in eight days, party president Bhattacharjee said.

Assam chief minister Himanta Biswa Sarma, union ministers Smriti Irani, Pratima Bhoumik and Sarbananda Sonowal are also likely to take part during the eight day Rath Yatra which is going to conclude in Agartal on January 12. BJP national president JP Nadda is going to take part in the concluding day.

During the eight day long yatra, 200 meetings, 100 padyatra and 50 road shows among other events would be held to boost the party workers and supporters ahead of the crucial polls early next year.
BJP general secretary Amit Rakshit and senior leader Tinku Roy would be in charge of the Yatras in North Tripura and South Tripura districts respectively. HM Shah will leave for Manipur in the evening.
