New Delhi: Congress leader Rahul Gandhi visited Hazrat Nizamuddin Aulia Dargah and Jairam Ashram as Bharat Jodo Yatra reached Delhi on Saturday.

People joined the yatra, with beating of drums and playing patriotic songs. They even waved tricolours as they walked behind Gandhi.

The Congress workers queued up along the route of the yatra and showered flower petals on those who walked.

Meanwhile, security from Badarpur to Ashram was stepped up, with barricades erected and teams of police personnel stationed at several locations along the route.

The party workers also set up camps at various places on the route, where song and dance programmes have been organised.

As the yatra progressed, Congress supporters were seen chanting slogans like “Nafrat Chodo, Bharat Jodo” (quit hatred, unite India).

A large number of youth supporters also joined the yatra and they said that they were protesting against “unemployment”.

Enthusiastic people could also be seen lining up to catch a glimpse of the procession.

Meanwhile, Congress leader Kanhaiya Kumar said the BJP is scared of Bharat Jodo Yatra as it is getting a huge response from people.

"They are scared of this Yatra, that's the reason they are coming up with such excuses. Rahul Gandhi ji is spreading love and peace in the country," news agency PTI quoted Kumar as saying.

Senior party leaders, including former Haryana chief minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, Kumari Selja, Randeep Surjewala, Shaktisinh Gohil and others also accompanied Rahul Gandhi.
