RAJKOT – The Aam Aadmi Party’s (AAP) ambitious “Bring Change, Save Farmers” (Parivartan Lavo, Khedut Bachavo) Yatra reached Sardhar in Rajkot district today, drawing a massive crowd of local farmers and supporters. The AAP Gujarat Farmers Yatra, led by AAP Frontal Organization President Shri Pravin Ram, serves as a powerful comeback following his 108-day imprisonment.
A Hero’s Welcome in Sardhar
Pravin Ram, who was recently released after being jailed for over three months in connection with the October 2025 Botad farmers’ agitation, was greeted with significant fanfare. Addressing the gathering in Sardhar, Ram emphasized that his time in prison had only strengthened his resolve to fight for the rights of Gujarat’s agrarian community.

“My 108 days in jail were a small price to pay for the voice of our farmers,” Ram stated during the public meeting. “This yatra is not just a protest; it is a movement to ensure fair prices and dignity for every farmer in Gujarat.”
Key Leaders in Attendance
The meeting in Sardhar saw a strong show of strength from the AAP Rajkot unit. Key leaders present included:
- Shri Tejas Gajipara (Rajkot District President)
- Shri Rahul Bhuva (Senior AAP Leader)
- Numerous district office bearers and grassroots workers.
Focus on the 2027 Road Map
The AAP Gujarat farmers yatra is being viewed by political analysts as the opening salvo for the party’s 2027 Assembly election campaign. By focusing on the “Saurashtra heartland,” AAP aims to consolidate its base among farmers who are currently agitated over issues like the Kadada system (unfair crop deductions) and irrigation electricity.
The AAP Gujarat Farmers Yatra is scheduled to continue through several villages in Rajkot and Jamnagar, highlighting the “anti-farmer” policies of the current administration.
