Civil society groups to launch nationwide drive on March 23

In a bid to reclaim the poll narrative post-Pulwama, major civil society networks have joined hands to launch a nationwide campaign on March 23, the death anniversary of Bhagat Singh, which is commemorated as Shaheed Diwas or Martyrs’ Day.

The “Desh Mera, Vote Mera, Mudda Mera” campaign will aim to move the focus away from nationalism to “real issues” such as farm distress, unemployment, education, hate crimes and growing inequality, said leaders of the coalition.

They blamed Opposition parties for being passive and unable to reverse the “hijacking of the election agenda”.
‘BJP playing politics’

“The BJP is playing politics with martyrs and we want to question that and recall the full vision of those martyrs. What was Bhagat Singh’s vision for the country? It went beyond national security,” said Swaraj India president Yogendra Yadav.

“One month ago, it felt like Modi could do nothing right, with questions arising on farmers, jobs, the economy…But just when substantive and inconvenient issues had begun to surface, the government response to the Pulwama attack and the fact that the Opposition was caught on the wrong foot has changed the narrative,” he added. “Pulwama has had an impact, especially in the northern States. It has made people forget their grievances and the real issues that affect them,” admitted Madhuresh Kumar, convener of the National Alliance of People’s Movements.
