The BJP has suspended its "Jan Aakrosh Yatra" in Rajasthan in view of a rising number of coronavirus cases globally, party general secretary Arun Singh said on Thursday.
With an eye on the Assembly polls due next year in Rajasthan, BJP chief JP Nadda launched the 'Jan Aakrosh Yatra' in the Congress-ruled state to corner the Ashok Gehlot government on issues related to farmers and governance on December 1.
"The BJP has suspended Jan Aakrosh Yatra in Rajasthan in the wake of rising number of COVID-19 cases. For the BJP, people come first before politics. For us the safety of people, their health is priority," Mr Singh said.
Describing the Congress' Bharat Jodo Yatra as a "morning and evening walk", Singh accused the party of playing with people's life for politics.
