TURA, Jan 8th: Congress in Meghalaya has moved a proposal for the much anticipated Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra of Rahul Gandhi which takes off from Manipur in the north east all the way to the western shores in Maharashtra to include a portion of Meghalaya from Khanapara in Ri Bhoi, announced Meghalaya Congress chief and Shillong MP Vincent Pala in Tura on Monday during a press conference at Congress Bhawan.
Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra campaign will start from Manipur on January 14th and end in Mumbai, covering 15 states, 110 districts and 100 Lok Sabha seats over a period of 68 days.
Vincent Pala told Hub News on Monday at Congress Bhawan in Tura that the party plans to try and include a strip of Meghalaya under the yatra when Rahul Gandhi marches into Assam.
“We have suggested the route between Khanapara to Nongpoh for Rahul Gandhi so as to link Meghalaya with the yatra. Currently, the party is surveying the route suggested by the state congress,” informed Pala.
Several thousand Congress supporters from Garo Hills and Khasi Hills also plan to march with Rahul Gandhi when he crosses into Guwahati in Assam.
” Party supporters, workers and even common people who believe in freedom and equality are free to join the yatra when it passes our region,” said Pala.
