Bharat Jodo Yatra was not to sermonise ‘Mann ki Baat’ but to listen to ‘Janta ki Chinta’: Congress

The Congress party celebrated the fourth anniversary of the Bharat Jodo Yatra led by Rahul Gandhi, describing it as a 'decisive turning point' in Indian politics. The 145-day journey, covering 4080 km across 12 states and two union territories, aimed to address concerns about economic inequality, social polarization, and political authoritarianism. The event was framed as an ideological challenge to the BJP's perceived assault on constitutional values and was contrasted with the Modi government's policies. Congress leaders emphasized the Yatra's focus on listening to public grievances ('Janta ki Chinta') rather than delivering speeches ('Mann ki Baat'). They highlighted the movement's role in uniting diverse communities and promoting secularism, equality, and unity, while calling for continued efforts to combat fascism and rebuild India according to its founding principles.
