Launching his "Jan Chetna Yatra" against corruption, that would traverse across the country, senior Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) leader L K Advani today claimed the yatra would bring in a transformation in the existing system on the lines of the JP movement in 1974.

Offering tributes to Lok Nayak Jay Prakash Narayan, popularly referred to JP, at his birthplace at Sitabdiara on his birth anniversary, Mr Advani said, inspired by the ideologies of JP, who was instrumental in bringing a change in the guard, he had decided to kick start the rath yatra from here to launch his campaign against corruption and to demand that the Government take steps to bring back black money stashed in illegal bank accounts abroad.
