Thiruvananthapuram, Sep 6 (SocialNews.XYZ) All is in place for "the biggest political yatra" ever undertaken in the country as Rahul Gandhi-led Bharat Jodo Yatra will begin from Tamil Nadu's Kanyakumari on Wednesday at 5 p.m, Congress General Secretary, Organisation, K.C.Venugopal said.
Gandhi will arrive here on Wednesday afternoon and from the airport, fly on a helicopter to Kanyakumari and after spending time at the various places there, begin the yatra.
Senior leaders and Chief Ministers of the Congress will be present on the occasion, apart from Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K.Stalin.
Venugopal said the yatra is to liberate the country from the Modi regime.
"For the past eight years, our country has gone back in all sectors and this yatra is not just a Congress yatra but for all those who are opposing the Centre.
