Congress Legislature Party (CLP) leader Bhatti Vikramarka touched the 1,000 km milestone on Sunday after traversing 29 constituencies and listening to the travails of thousands of people who met him during his yatra that started from Adilabad district.
The ‘People’s March’, which is an extension of the Bharat Jodo Yatra of Rahul Gandhi, began on March 16 from Adilabad and completed the historic 1,000 km as it reached Deverakonda in combined Nalgonda district on Sunday. A pylon was inaugurated marking the milestone of the padayatra on the occasion.
“It brought me into close contact with Adivasis, tribals, Lambadas, Dalits, minorities, downtrodden sections, farmers, unemployed, Singareni workers, students, and other sections. Everyone had a story to tell about the failures of the government,” he said on Sunday. Several Congress leaders joined him at various places during the yatra and walked along with him.
