“Congress has fulfilled promises in three of the states that it is in power – Chhattisgarh, Rajasthan and Himachal Pradesh, and it will deliver in Haryana too,” he added. “But the main goal of the rally is to unite people, across all languages, religion and protect the diversity of the country that it is known for.”
Starting from Kanyakumari in Tamil Nadu on September 7, the rally has so far covered Kerala, Karnataka, Andhra Pradesh, Telangana, Maharashtra, Madhya Pradesh, Rajasthan, Delhi and Uttar Pradesh, and entered Punjab on Wednesday. Gandhi paid obeisance at Amritsar’s Golden Temple before beginning the Punjab leg.
