Lucknow, May 31 -- The Azad Samaj Party (ASP) chief and Nagina MP Chandrashekhar Azad on Saturday announced the launch of his ambitious 'Satta Parivartan Yatra' to build momentum for the 2027 Uttar Pradesh Assembly elections. While addressing a press conference at the Press Club in Lucknow, Azad stated that his yatra will begin on June 4, 2026, from Bijnor. The yatra is not just a movement for political change, but also to protect the Constitution and secure the rights of Dalits, backward classes and minorities, said Azad. Azad also outlined a bold vision for education and youth empowerment. "If my government is formed, I will ensure MBBS education for just Rs.1. Law and engineering studies will be completely free," he said. When asked about an alliance in the upcoming 2027 UP Assembly polls, Azad expressed his openness, saying his party's doors are open to any willing partner for the 2027 battle, while simultaneously preparing to contest all 403 seats alone. He further promised uniform quality education from Class 1 to 12 and accused the current dispensation of failing the youth. He demanded that paper leaks be treated as organised crime, equivalent to murder cases, and called for free entrance examinations with home centres for competitive exam aspirants. "The youth are demanding jobs, not corruption," he asserted, ending with the slogan: "Give jobs or vacate the chair." Azad also pledged a promotion quota for SC/ST/OBC communities, an additional 15% reservation for Extremely Backward Classes, and reservation for backward classes in the Lok Sabha and Rajya Sabha. His other promises included 50% reservation for women, implementation of the Old Pension Scheme, and guaranteed MSP with compensation for crop losses for farmers....
