The ‘Deoria to Dilli yatra’ is part of a Congress campaign to end its 27-year exile from power in the State. The Congress leader reached Deoria around 10.45 a.m. by a chopper and started knocking at the doors of farmers. Met farmers, & collected Kisan Maang Patras outlining their demands,” he said in another tweet. On the first two days of the yatra, he will cover Kushinagar, Gorakhpur, Sant Kabirnagar and Basti besides Deoria. The yatra comes after the road show of Sonia Gandhi earlier last month and the two yatras of State party leaders in various districts.
