After Lal Chowk, Rahul’s Bharat Jodo Yatra which had started from Kanyakumari, will travel to Nehru Park in the Boulevard area of Srinagar.

Bharat Jodo Yatra resumed at 10 am from Pantha Chowk in Srinagar today. It is learned that BJY will halt at Sonwar Chowk for a brief break. Notably, today (January 29) is the last walking day of BJY.

Rahul Gandhi is also scheduled to address a rally at SK Stadium on Monday. The Congress has invited leaders of 23 opposition political parties to attend the rally which will mark the conclusion of BJY.
