Uddhav Or Aaditya Thackeray To Join Bharat Jodo Yatra During Maharashtra Leg

Once it enters Maharashtra through Deglur in Nanded — senior leader Ashok Chavan’s fortress — on 6th November, the Bharat Jodo Yatra, currently in , is scheduled to cover 383 km in 16 days in the state before it heads to Madhya Pradesh.

Mumbai: Either Shiv Sena (Uddhav Balasaheb Thackeray)’s chief Uddhav Thackeray or his son Aaditya will join Congress leader Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’, which enters Maharashtra next month, according to a report by The Print.

The affirmation that the Sena will join the yatra — which completed over 1,000 km last week — came a day after a delegation of the Congress party met Thackeray at his Mumbai residence, Matoshree, and invited him to join the Maharashtra leg of the yatra, which begins on 6 November from Nanded.

The delegation, which was led by Congress’ Maharashtra in-charge H.K. Patil and had senior leaders from the party such as Balasaheb Thorat and Ashok Chavan, also met Nationalist Congress Party supremo Sharad Pawar at the Yashwantrao Chavan Centre to invite him to join the 35,70 Yatra.

Speaking to The Print, a source in the Congress said that Thackeray told the party that if he and his son both can’t make it to the yatra, one of them will mark the Sena’s presence. Likewise, Pawar has also vowed to join the yatra, as has his daughter and senior NCP leader Supriya Sule, the source said.

“Rahul Gandhi is on the Bharat Jodo Yatra and we are inviting our partners and friends to join us on it,” Maharashtra Congress president Nana Patole was quoted saying by The Print. “Lakhs of people are joining Rahul Gandhi every day. So, tomorrow, nobody should tell us that they wanted to join but we didn’t invite them.”

Once it enters Maharashtra through Deglur in Nanded — senior leader Ashok Chavan’s fortress — on 6th November, the Bharat Jodo Yatra, currently in Andhra Pradesh, is scheduled to cover 383 km in 16 days in the state before it heads to Madhya Pradesh.

Rahul Gandhi is expected to address 10 public meetings as he makes his journey across Maharashtra.
