New Delhi: Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra has wrapped up its Maharashtra leg on Sunday, November 20, 2022, with a 'Light of Unity' show in Nimkhed in Buldhana district.

"I will always cherish this experience," he said, adding he interacted with farmers, youth, women, Dalits and backward classes and deprived sections of the society on the socio-political situation in the country.

A great political upheaval has been observed during the Yatra in Maharashtra as many politicians, celebrities and activists were seen joining with the former Congress president. Controversies were built and several interesting bits were seen in the Yatra.
