BJP Launches Nationwide 'Samrasta Sankalp Abhiyan' Honoring Guru Ravidas
The BJP has launched the 'Samrasta Sankalp Abhiyan,' a nationwide campaign from July 29, 2026, to February 20, 2027, commemorating the 650th birth anniversary of Guru Ravidas. The initiative aims to promote his teachings of equality, social harmony, and national unity through religious, cultural, and social events across India, including a month-long yatra from Jalandhar to Varanasi. While the party emphasizes the campaign's social and spiritual goals, some observers view it as a strategic effort to engage Scheduled Caste voters ahead of upcoming elections, particularly in Punjab.
