we are implementing it in Andhra Pradesh. We will also launch Gandhi March in Assam from October 2,” he said.
The party plans to convert Gandhi March into a massive mass mobilisation campaign, organising interactive theatres, songs, speeches, wall writing, pamphlet distribution and public meetings. At least two-three educated persons will be selected in every gram panchayat to “form public opinion and provide correct information on various issues”. The criteria for the selection of gram panchayat-level workers include, among other things, “preferably graduates”, “below 30 years of age”, and “should not be aspiring for salaried jobs”, says the document. They will be given three-day “residential training” by the party.
District/block committees are proposed to have a cell to stage protests and agitation programmes on issues like dowry deaths, harassment of women, Dalits and weaker sections, road, education and electricity. There is also a proposal to organise activities for children, including essay writing, debate, story telling, cultural and sports activities, tuitions and coaching.
