Imphal, March 17 2024: Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra concluded at Chatrapati Shivaji Park in Mumbai on Saturday where MPCC president K Meghachandra, CLP leader O Ibobi and CWC member Gaikhangam were present among a host of Congress leaders from different parts of the country.

Gandhi concluded his much-talked-about Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra by reading out the Preamble of the Indian Constitution.

He also paid tribute to Dr BR Ambedkar at his memorial in Chaityabhoomi in central Mumbai.

Rahul Gandhi was accompanied by his sister Priyanka Gandhi who is also the general secretary of AICC.

The yatra covered 6,600 Kms from Manipur and gave 25 guarantees.

Congress president Malli-karjun Kharge and Congress leader Rahul Gandhi formally started the yatra during an event in Khong-jom, Thoubal, on January 14, 2024 .

The event, attended by several National and regional Congress leaders, saw Rahul Gandhi inaugurate the yatra while criticising the BJP Government over the current situation in the State.

Rahul Gandhi, addressing a massive gathering of over 50,000 individuals in Thoubal district, expressed the Congress Party's understanding of the pain and suffering endured by the people of Manipur.

Rahul Gandhi criticised Prime Minister Narendra Modi for not visiting Manipur to offer solace to those affected by the prolonged clash.

Gandhi pledged that the party would work to restore the lost trust and faith caused by the persistent violence, emphasising their commitment to bringing relief and unity to the region.

Manipur has been in the grip of ethnic violence since May 3, 2023, in which over 170 people have lost their lives and tens of thousands have been displaced from their homes.

Rahul Gandhi started the yatra by first paying tributes at the Khongjom War Memorial in Thoubal.

During the Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, Rahul Gandhi not only met with lakhs of people but also listened attentively to their concerns.

He reached out to them, inviting some while visiting others.

He interacted with families and groups alike.

Based on these interactions, he has announced guarantees for farmers, such as implementing MSP as per the Swaminathan Committee's recommendations, conducting caste censuses, and abolishing the 50% reservation limit.

As Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra ended in Maharashtra on Saturday, Congress general secretary Jairam Ramesh said that the party has given 25 guarantees in five 'nyay' in the last 63 days, and these reflect the party's election strategy.
