Bharatiya Janata Party national spokesperson RP Singh on Monday hit out at Congress Party for joining Jagdish Tytler in Bharat Jodo Yatra. "Congress Party does not consider us as its part, BJP leader said.
As the Bharat Jodo Yatra is all set to reach the National Capital on December 24 the Congress Party is doing all preparations to welcome the Yatra in Delhi.
As the Congress' Bharat Jodo Yatra's Rajasthan leg resumed from Kalakho in Dausa on Sunday, slogans in support of Rajasthan's former Deputy Chief Minister Sachin Pilot raised again in the Gujjar community's leader's citadel.
Congress MP Rahul Gandhi-led Bharat Jodo Yatra, the mass contact campaign, will mark its 100th day with a concert at the Albert Hall in the Rajasthan capital.
Congress party resumed the 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' from Golya in Rajasthan's Dausa on Thursday. The yatra has already covered Jhalawar, Kota, Sawai Madhopur districts in Rajasthan.
It has covered Jhalawar and Kota districts before reaching Bundi and will proceed to Sawai Madhopur, Dausa and Alwar districts. Rajasthan is the only Congress-ruled state where the yatra has entered and will cover about 500 km over 17 days before entering Haryana on December 21.
A video of the impromptu dance performance surfaced on social media, showing Rahul, Gehlot and Pilot holding hands and dancing with folk artistes on the stage.
The video, which purportedly has Rahul Gandhi's voiceover and bears the Congress' 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' logo, claims that the saffron party was spending a huge amount of money to defame his image.
Congress MP KC Venugopal on Sunday said that it is not practical for former party president Rahul Gandhi to attend the winter session of Parliament as Bharatb Jodo Yatra is underway.
The incident took place days after KC Venugopal held a meeting with the two leaders of the state and held hands with Gehlot and Pilot during a press conference in an attempt to show unity in Jaipur on November 29. Venugopal had claimed that the party is united in the state.
