New Delhi: Congress MP Rahul Gandhi will launch the party’s ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’ from Kanyakumari today. Rahul Gandhi started his day with a visit to his father Rajiv Gandhi’s memorial in Tamil Nadu’s Sriperumbudur, where the former Prime Minister was killed in a suicide attack on May 21, 1991.
The 3,500-kilometre-long yatra will be covered in nearly 150 days. The foot march will start tomorrow. The Congress said the yatra has no connection with any election and is only aimed at ‘uniting India’. Congress spokesperson Jairam Ramesh said it will be a “transformational moment” for Indian politics and a decisive moment for the “rejuvenation of the party”.
