Rahul Gandhi, the Leader of the Opposition in the Lok Sabha, is set to join the 'Sadbhav Yatra' led by Brijendra Singh, a former Member of Parliament from Hisar, in Gurugram, Haryana, on May 8. The yatra, which began in October last year, aims to address pressing local issues such as farmers' distress, unemployment, and corruption. Singh, who switched from the Bharatiya Janata Party (BJP) to Congress, has covered 81 out of 90 assembly segments in the state. However, the event has been marred by boycotts from several Congress leaders, including former Chief Minister Bhupinder Singh Hooda, who criticized the yatra as unofficial. While some Congress figures have joined Singh in support, others have expressed skepticism about his motives, particularly given his recent political transition from the BJP.
