The foot march began from Kanyakumari on 7 September and marked its 100 days on Friday, during the 12th day of its Rajasthan leg. Congress MP Rahul Gandhi-led Yatra, the party's attempt at a mass contact campaign, resumed from Rajasthan's Dausa today.
The Congress Veteran also shared a video message along with the tweet.
"Bharat Jodo yatra has taken a historic step as today it has completed 100 days. Congratulations to Rahul Gandhi. BJY has support from lakhs of people. We talk to people on a direct basis. We have been talking with Youth, farmers, women, deprived and everybody in society," said Kharge in the video.
He further highlighted three major aspects in which the yatra had been uniting people.
"Bharat Jodo Yatra is uniting people against 3 things majorly:
First, the hatred that's being spread in the society...... There have been continuous atrocities against SC, St and minorities. Congress party has been raising voices against this.
Secondly, in the last 8 years, the country has been facing extreme unemployment and inflation. In this, all of you people have been giving in suggestions ....so that we would form a thorough economic agenda for the 2024 elections.

Thirdly, there's a wave of dictatorship in the country. The BJP has weakened constitutional institutions. Everyone has been speaking against it. Bharat Jodo yatra is a national movement. We believe in the coming years we all together will give a new direction and an impetus to India."
The Bharat Jodo yatra which began on 7 September will cover 3,570 km from Kanyakumari in the south to Kashmir in the north over a period of about five months.
Bharat Jodo Yatra aims to create awareness among people and strengthen the Congress party ahead of the 2024 general election. The tagline of the yatra is 'Mile Kadam, Jude Watan'.
Waynad MP Rahul Gandhi on Friday along with party leaders and workers resumed the padayatra from Meena High Court, Dausa, around 6 am and is scheduled to take a break at Giriraj Dharan temple at around 11 am.
The Party has planned a concert in Jaipur at the Albert Hall in the evening to celebrate 100 days of Bharat Jodo Yatra. (with ANI inputs)
