Lokesh’ ‘Yuva Galam’ Target: 4000 Kms In 400 Days!

Nara Lokesh is all set to begin his year-long padayatra starting from Jan 27, 2023. The padayatra has got a name. It has been called as ‘Yuva Galam’. This walkathon starts from Kuppam in Chittoor district. It covers the length and breadth of the state and ends at Ichchapuram in Srikakulam district. 

Lokesh has designed his padayatra such that he would walk for a stretch of 4000 km in 400 days non-stop yatra. He made sure he will spend 4 to 5 days in every Assembly constituency from Kuppam to Ichchapuram. One public meeting is also planned in every constituency where he is doing his Yatra. The route map of this yatra is going to be announced to the public very soon.

Padayatra has a huge role in Andhra Pradesh politics. It started with YS Rajasekhar Reddy and it was followed by Chandrababu Naidu and YS Jagan. Now that Nara Lokesh is joining the bandwagon, all eyes are on Lokesh. 

The question on everyone’s lips, especially TDP leaders is whether Lokesh’s walkathon would be as successful as YSR, Naidu and Jagan. So far, only the CM candidates have done Padayatra where they reached out to the masses. Meeting the people of various sectors, the leaders saw the people’s problems closely and eventually got close to the people.

 The promises that were made by these leaders during the Padayatra did make huge significance. Be it YS Rajasekhar Reddy or Chandrababu Naidu or YS Jaganmohan Reddy, they have made promises to the public upon coming to power. 

Lokesh may target arch rival and CM YS Jagan throughout his yatra, but he also has to balance the promise of a better future if TDP wins. Let’s wait and see what is in store for Lokesh’s padayatra.
