Congress’ Yatra has created ‘big media buzz’, but may not fetch votes: Meghalaya CM Sangma


SHILLONG: The Congress’ Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, which passed through several northeastern states, has created a “big media buzz” but may not fetch the party votes, Meghalaya Chief Minister and National People’s Party president Conrad Sangma has said.

“I don’t think they will get the outcome that they desire,” he told PTI.

The amount of energy and resources that the Congress has put in for this Yatra “may not convert into real votes and real seats,” Sangma said.

The Yatra, led by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, began from Manipur on January 14 and crossed Meghalaya on January 22.

It covered five of the eight northeastern states ahead of the Lok Sabha elections, due in April-May.

Sangma said, “When you do something, whatever energy you put, will obviously have some impact in one way or the other. The question is how much impact it will have.

The amount of energy that has been put into this Yatra, would it fructify into equivalent amount of votes being changed or coming in favour of Congress party.I doubt it.”

“Yes, it’s a big media buzz but winning election is more than just a Yatra.

The Congress has a lot of issues internally, organisationally, and there are so many factors that need to be resolved. The Yatra is going on, and so many people are leaving the party.
