Bharat Jodo Yatra: Priyanka Gandhi will participate in March for the first time as it enters Madhya Pradesh

Bharat Jodo Yatra: After travelling across the southern states for more than two months, the Bharat Jodo Yatra, which is being led by Congress MP Rahul Gandhi, entered Madhya Pradesh on Wednesday.

As the foot procession entered Madhya Pradesh from Maharashtra, a sizable group of Congressmen arrived at Bodarli hamlet with the tricolour.

The 12-day yatra was officially launched in the central state of Madhya Pradesh by Maharashtra Congress President Nana Patole handing over the tricolour to Madhya Pradesh party chairman Kamal Nath. The yatra would traverse a distance of 380 kilometres before entering Rajasthan.

Assembly elections are scheduled for Madhya Pradesh next year, thus the Congress has made significant preparations for the yatra there. After some of its MLAs left the party in 2020, it had lost control of the state.

The Bharat Jodo Yatra, which began on September 7 at Kanyakumari, Tamil Nadu, is currently in its 77th day, on November 23.
