Begusarai (Bihar) [India], December 27 : Union Minister Giriraj Singh on Wednesday took a jibe at Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's 'Bharat Nyay Yatra' and asserted that the grand old party lost all elections after the Bharat Jodo Yatra, adding that it will be interesting to see what they will lose after the Bharat Nyay Yatra.
This comes after Congress Secretary KC Venugopal announced that party leader Rahul Gandhi is all set to embark on a Bharat Nyay Yatra from January 14 to March 20 from Manipur to Mumbai.
"They can take out any yatra they want to... When they took out the Bharat Jodo Yatra, they lost all the elections. Let us see what they lose after the Bharat Nyay Yatra," Singh said.
The Congress party said that the Nyay Yatra will cover 6,200 kilometres. It will traverse a route through the states of Manipur, Nagaland, Assam, Meghalaya, West Bengal, Bihar, Jharkhand, Odisha, Chhattisgarh, Uttar Pradesh, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Gujarat, and finally Maharashtra.
The Yatra will cover 14 states and 85 districts.
Congress leader and former Party president Rahul Gandhi will once again go on a yatra, this time from East to West.
Earlier, the Bharat Jodo Yatra, which started in Kanyakumari on September 7, 2022, and was led by Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, concluded on January 30, 2023, in Srinagar after covering 3,970 km, 12 states, and two Union territories and having lasted more than 130 days.
The 2024 Lok Sabha elections will be held next year and are likely to be between the Modi government's NDA alliance and the INDIA bloc.
