Congress's Bharat Jodo Yatra begins, Rahul Gandhi also attacked the BJP and the Modi government

The Bharat Jodo Yatra of the country's main opposition party Congress has started. The journey started from Kanyakumari under the leadership of former Congress President and Wayanad MP Rahul Gandhi. This 3570 km journey will pass through 12 states and two union territories. While starting the yatra, Rahul Gandhi also attacked the BJP and the central government fiercely.

After starting the Bharat Jodo Yatra, Rahul Gandhi said- They (BJP) feel that they can scare the opposition by using CBI and ED. The problem is that the Indian people are not scared. It doesn't matter how many hours they inquire. No opposition leader is going to be scared. Rahul Gandhi further said that BJP feels that they can divide the country on the basis of religion and language but this country cannot be divided. This country will remain united.

After starting the Bharat Jodo Yatra, Rahul Gandhi attacked the BJP over the tricolour. He said that they (BJP) think that this (tricolour) is their personal property. Tricolour was not found so easily. Nobody gave it to us. It was not a gift. The Indians earned it. This flag represents every citizen living in this country.

After starting the Bharat Jodo Yatra, Rahul Gandhi said that Prime Minister Modi is shown on news channels throughout the day. Nobody shows us, people, so we are taking the tour. Rahul also said- The future of crores of people is in the hands of one person and instead of grooming it, he showed the fear of ED and CBI to the opposition. We are going back to the era of slavery. Earlier one East India Company used to rule the country, now 3-4 companies are doing this work.

Congress interim president Sonia Gandhi is not attending the yatra due to health reasons. However, he has given his best wishes to Congress workers and leaders. Sonia Gandhi wrote in her letter – I am sorry for not being able to personally attend the historic India Jodo Yatra due to a medical checkup.

He further wrote that this is a historic occasion for the Indian National Congress. I am sure that our organization will be transformed. It is also a transformative moment in Indian politics. She said I will definitely watch it live. Let us stand united and firm in our resolve.

Apart from Rahul Gandhi, other leaders including Mallikarjun Kharge, KC Venugopal, Digvijay Singh, Ashok Gehlot, Bhupesh Baghel and Yogendra Yadav are also involved in this historic visit of Congress. All these leaders also addressed the gathering. Earlier, on Wednesday morning, Rahul paid tribute to his father Rajiv Gandhi by visiting the memorial in Sriperumbudur. Rahul stayed in Sriperumbudur for about one and a half hours. It was here that Rajiv Gandhi was assassinated in 1991.
