Former Congress president Rahul Gandhi and a host of party leaders would address the "Mehngai par halla bol" rally.
Party workers from Delhi, Haryana and Uttar Pradesh, and other parts of the country, would participate.

The "Bharat Jodo Yatra" is the Congress party's biggest ever mass contact programme, where the party leaders will reach out to the common people at the grassroots level.
Congress has been attacking the government over price rise and unemployment and saying that these are issues of the common people and should be discussed at all forums.
The opposition party is also seeking a solution to the problems of price rise, inflation and unemployment, besides the hike in the Goods and Services Tax (GST) on essential items, and wants efforts on the part of the establishment to help provide respite to people.
