The yatra was received by the residents at various stops.During the march, AAP MP Sanjay Singh said that Uttar Pradesh has become the state with the highest number of unemployed people in the country, with youth being particularly affected. He added that farmers, weavers and families involved in small-scale industries are also facing difficulties linked to unemployment. Singh alleged that government policies have adversely impacted small enterprises and traditional occupations.He further stated that caste-based discrimination remains a major barrier to social progress in Uttar Pradesh. Through this padyatra, he said, the demand is for equality and transparency across systems, including in government functioning and recruitment processes. According to him, social justice and development will remain incomplete until caste-based inequities are addressed.At Pratapganj Bazaar, Sharafat Ullah Ansari, Mujeeb Ahmed, Girish Tiwari, Upendra Tiwari, Rakesh Tiwari, Zubair Khan and Alok Tiwari welcomed Sanjay Singh with garlands.
