The Bharat Jodo Yatra led by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi appears to have galvanised party leaders in Kerala into action, besides reinforcing a spirit of camaraderie among United Democratic Front partners.
Although the slogan of the yatra is aimed at uniting India from religious polarisation, Congress leaders feel that Mr. Gandhi’s 18-day mass-contact programme through eight districts has been able to drive his political point home in the State.
“The meetings with social, political and cultural leaders and the interactions with women and students were highly effective. Also, the conversations with farmers from Kottayam and Idukki, northern districts including Wayanad and Kozhikode,” Kerala Pradesh Congress Committee (KPCC) president K. Sudhakaran told The Hindu on Thursday.
