Congressman Rahul Gandhi started his 3,570-kilometer padyatra on Thursday morning from Agasteeswaram in Kanyakumari. At the encampment of the Bharat Yatris, who would walk alongside him, Rahul hoisted the flag to start the yatra.
Gandhi criticised the government, claiming that the BJP and RSS are splitting India along religious and linguistic lines by attacking the tricolour. He asked the populace to preserve the principles represented by the flag.

He said that India is on the verge of collapse due to its worst-ever economic crisis, the largest unemployment rate, and other factors.
