Congress interim president Sonia Gandhi on Thursday morning joined the party's 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' in Mandya in Karnataka.
Sonia Gandhi who had arrived in Mysuru on Monday afternoon arrived at the starting point of the padyatra, which resumed on Thursday after a two-day break for Dussehra.
The yatra entered its Karnataka leg on September 30.
The Congress supremo was seen walking in the company of her son and Congress MP Rahul Gandhi and other Congress leaders.
She had earlier visited the Bheemanakolli Temple in Begur village and offered prayers on October 5.
Karnataka Congress chief D K Shivakumar said, "After Vijayadashami, there will be Vijaya in Karnataka. We are proud that Sonia Gandhi has come to walk on the streets of Karnataka. We are coming to power in the state, and the BJP (Bharatiya Janata Party) is on the way to shutting its shop."
Day 29 of the 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' began with flag hoisting at 5.30 am at Exhibition Grounds, Mysuru, where Bharat Yatris joined in Dasara celebrations.
The padyatra (march) is covering a distance of 25 km every day.
The march was aimed to cover as many as 12 states in five months. It will be in Karnataka for 21 days before moving north.
According to the Congress, the 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' is being held to combat the divisive politics of the BJP-led Centre and to awaken the people of the country to the dangers of economic inequalities, social polarisation and political centralisation.
Notably, all the party MPs, leaders and workers along with Rahul Gandhi are staying in containers.
Sleeping beds, toilets and ACs are also installed in some of the containers.
During the journey, the temperature and environment will differ in many areas.
The arrangements have been made keeping in view the intense heat and humidity with the change of places.
