The Congress’s Bharat Jodo Yatra led by Rahul Gandhi resumed the march from Shri Krishna Temple in Phalegaon in Hingoli district of Maharashtra.

The party’s task force for the Bharat Jodo Yatra met to assess the outcome of its biggest foot-march that has completed 68 days. Since it started from Kanyakumari in Tamilnadu on August 23. The assessment was necessitated as the march has completed its south India leg and entered northern states. Where the Congress faces tougher political challenge from the BJP.

We were having a review meeting of Bharat Jodo Yatra because half of the yatra is completed. Now we’re in the hearts of North India so the feedback is important on how to move forward. Congress general secretary KC Venugopal said hours before the meeting. “Response from the public and party workers is incomparable to any other event”.

He further said: There is no specific change in the routes, but if the respective PCCs(Pradesh Congress Committees) ask for small correction in the route of the yatra without changing the date, then it will be alright.

Party president Mallikarjun Kharge joined the meeting briefly and was apprised of the achievements of the yatra, said a leader who was present in the meeting. Leaders discussed how the yatra has set a narrative and its message has gone to millions. Another leader said there was a discussion on holding another yatra that will cover India east-to-west, connecting the states not covered in this yatra.
