Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra completed its Madhya Pradesh leg on Sunday evening and entered Congress-ruled Rajasthan.

Before the yatra reached Rajasthan, Rahul Gandhi passed through Agar Malwa district of Madhya Pradesh where he was greeted by loud cheers for Prime Minister Narendra Modi, by presumably a group of BJP supporters.

In a video that has gone viral, loud chants of “Modi, Modi” can be heard.

In response, the Congress leader is seen giving flying kisses.

The yatra started from Kanyakumari in Tamil Nadu on September 7 and has so far covered the five southern states of Tamil Nadu, Kerala, Andhra Pradesh, Karnataka, and Telangana, and then traversed through Maharashtra and Madhya Pradesh.

The yatra will conclude in Jammu and Kashmir in early February 2023, covering 3,570 km in 150 days.
