Many Congress leaders and workers accompanied him.
MUMBAI: Many months after he quit Congress, former minister and city Congress president Kripa Shankar Singh kicked off a “Sankalp Yatra” or pledge journey on Sunday.
He plans to visit at least 1 lakh homes of north Indians and create awareness about their rights.
Addressing a motley crowd at Rajaram Singh Compound in Vakola, Santacruz East, Singh said: “We north Indians in Mumbai are hissedar (partners) not kirayedars (tenants). We have been ignored by all parties and now the time has come to assert ourselves and fight for our rights. We must unite.”
Singh clarified that this padyatra had nothing to do with politics as currently he is not in any party since his resignation from the Congress in September 2019.
