Bharat Uday Yatra has begun. But before the ace charioteer-turned-most profiled "passenger-on-bus" Deputy Prime Minister L K Advani set off on his nationwide tour, he coined a new slogan for his own yatra and also for the party - "India's time has come". He would sharply attack Congress, make an attempt to further boost Prime Minister Atal Bihari Vajpayee's image and would urge people to vote for the party to make India a developed country. "The time has come", to take a leap into the list of the most developed nations. "This is going to be the theme of my 8000km-long yatra", Mr Advani said.
