The foot march entered Madhya Pradesh on November 23 at Bodarli village in Burhanpur district from neighbouring Maharashtra.

“Bharat Jodo Yatra with Rahul Gandhi will be welcomed with maximum enthusiasm and energy in Rajasthan. The yatra will spend 12 days in the state. It will be a historic yatra with participation of all sections of people,” Pilot said in Jaipur.

KC Venugopal, the general secretary of the Congress committee (organisation), was also there and said that Rahul Gandhi has made it clear that Sachin Pilot and Ashok Gehlot are assets to the party.
