“Just as Gandhiji fought the British Raj, we are today fighting a battle with the very ideology that killed Gandhi. This ideology has in the past eight years delivered inequality, divisiveness and the erosion of our hard-won freedoms,” former Congress chief Rahul Gandhi said while addressing a rally amid heavy rains in Mysuru on Sunday evening.
Gandhi, who is currently in Karnataka for Congress’ ongoing ‘Bharat Jodo Yatra’, continued his speech amid incessant rain.
During his speech, the gathering cheered for him and raised slogans in his support.
“Neither rain, nor heat can stop this yatra,” said Gandhi.
The Congress leader is on the Karnataka leg of Bharat Jodo Yatra, the foot march from Kanyakumari to Kashmir.
