Congress MP Jairam Ramesh recently honored the third anniversary of Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’ in Srinagar. This yatra, covering 4,000 km from Kanyakumari to Kashmir, lasted 145 days and traversed 12 states and 2 Union Territories. Ramesh described the event as significant for addressing economic inequalities, social polarization, and political authoritarianism.
Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’ concluded with a flag hoisting ceremony and a public rally in Srinagar. Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, Congress general secretary, also spoke at the rally. Despite warnings of potential attacks in Kashmir, Rahul Gandhi expressed gratitude for the warm reception he received from the people.
The yatra, involving over 200 Bharat Yatris, aimed to engage with the public on pressing issues. The event saw the participation of 21 invited parties, with some notable absentees. Starting from Kanyakumari on September 7, the yatra ended in Srinagar on January 30, covering 3,970 km and including numerous interactions and press conferences by Rahul Gandhi.
