Ex-RBI governor Raghuram Rajan joins Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra

NEW DELHI: Former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan on Wednesday joined Congress's Bharat Jodo Yatra led by Rahul Gandhi in Rajasthan.
The Bharat Jodo Yatra entered Rajasthan on December 4. Rajasthan is the only Congress-ruled state the yatra has entered and will cover about 500 km over 17 days before entering Haryana on December 21. People in large numbers were seen joining the march holding banners and party flags.
"Raghuram Rajan is walking step by step along with Rahul Gandhi. The increasing number of people standing up to unite the country against hatred shows that we will be successful," Congress said on Twitter.

The yatra started from Kanyakumari on September 7 and has so far covered Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, Telangana, Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh. It will conclude in Jammu and Kashmir in early February 2023.
The Yatra will complete 100 days on December 16.
Rahul Gandhi aims to mobilise party cadre and unite general public against the alleged "divisive politics in the country".
