AAP Yatra Reaches Mathura, Sanjay Singh Demands Jobs For Youth Or Rs 10,000 Monthly Allowance

The Aam Aadmi Party's Rozgar Do Samajik Nyay Do padyatra reaches Mathura, led by Sanjay Singh, to press for government jobs for youth, address recruitment delays, paper leaks and social justice concerns, and rally broad public support ahead of the campaign's conclusion.

Aam Aadmi Party’s 'Rozgar Do – Samajik Nyay Do’ padyatra reached Mathura on Monday, marking its fourth day on the road from Hathras. Rajya Sabha member Sanjay Singh led the march, which focuses on jobs for youth and social justice, and drew strong participation from local residents and party workers.

During a public meeting in Mathura, Sanjay Singh sharply criticised the state government over unemployment and social discrimination. Singh alleged that lakhs of sanctioned government posts remain empty, while recruitment drives either stall or get caught in corruption. Singh demanded immediate government jobs for youth or a monthly unemployment allowance of Rs 10,000.

Sanjay Singh told the gathering that repeated delays in recruitment, frequent paper leaks and alleged irregularities have left young candidates disheartened. Singh also raised concerns about incidents of atrocities against Dalits and questioned the law and order situation in the state, linking these issues with the broader call for social justice.

As soon as the padyatra entered Mathura, Aam Aadmi Party supporters and local residents welcomed the march with enthusiasm. The procession had started from Sadabad, passed through Bisawar and then reached the city. On arrival, Sanjay Singh first garlanded the statue of Dr. Bhimrao Ambedkar before addressing the crowd.

Speaking from the stage, Sanjay Singh said, “The 'Rozgar Do-Samajik Nyay Do’ padyatra has reached the holy city of Lord Shri Krishna, Mathura. Today is the 5th day of the yatra. I appeal to all of you to join us to strengthen this struggle. On 9 April, this historic padyatra will conclude in Mathura. Come, be a part of this campaign for the future of youth and social justice.”

The Aam Aadmi Party leader also shared phone numbers for people wishing to join the march, asking supporters to call 75000 40004 and 8588855781. Party leaders linked the campaign to rising unemployment in Uttar Pradesh and argued that the padyatra had become a wider platform for raising concerns about fairness and opportunities.

Several other Aam Aadmi Party leaders addressed the programme in Mathura, including Dilip Pandey, Anil Jha, Vishesh Bhagat Singh, district president Ashwini Kumar Mishra and district secretary Raghvendra Singh. These leaders described the movement as a struggle for the rights of youth, farmers and workers, and urged people from different sections to stay engaged.

The padyatra saw heavy turnout from young people, women, Shiksha Mitras, ASHA workers and street vendors, reflecting its reach across social groups. Participants said the growing numbers show that the campaign is turning into a broader public movement, with the planned conclusion on 9 April in Mathura expected to draw further attention to its demands.
