Feel like returning home, says Rahul Gandhi as Bharat Jodo Yatra enters J-K

TIL Desk/National/New Delhi/ Rahul Gandhi walked into Jammu and Kashmir on Thursday evening in the last phase of Congress’ Bharat Jodo Yatra. He will end the Bharat Jodo Yatra at the historic Lal Chowk in Srinagar city on January 30.

Marching into Lakhanpur area of Kathua from neighbouring Punjab, Gandhi said: “My ancestors belonged to this land, I feel I am returning home. I am going back to my roots, I know the suffering of the people of J&K. I come to you with a bowed head.

“The media uses topics such as Bollywood stars Aishwarya Rai and Akshay Kumar to divert attention of people. The BJP and RSS have spread hatred, I earlier thought it ran deep, but it does not and is mainly seen on television.

“I have walked from Kanyakumari to Kashmir, BJP and RSS policies have led to widespread unemployment. Government is indulging in mass pickpocketing, it diverts your attention and then loots you.”

Gandhi listed hatred, violence, unemployment and price rise as main issues confronting country. He blamed media for not highlighting them.
