Urmila Matondkar Joins Congress’s Bharat Jodo Yatra

Actor-politician Urmila Matondkar joined the Congress’s Bharat Jodo Yatra in Jammu and Kashmir on Tuesday. Rahul Gandhi is leading the foot march, which is now in its last phase. Ever since the party’s march started in September, prominent faces outside of the Congress have been a part of the grand old party’s foot march. This includes actors Pooja Bhatt and Kamal Haasan, former RBI governor Raghuram Rajan, and veteran army officers. Urmila Matondkar posted a video on social media that showed her walking with Gandhi. She also posted a video message before the march, where she can be heard saying that Indian unity is the spirit that has been carried along during this Yatra. Throughout the Kanyakumari to Kashmir Yatra, Rahul Gandhi has been saying that his party aims to counter the hatred spread by the ruling party in an attack on the BJP and the RSS. On Monday, Rahul Gandhi met Kashmiri Pandits and also raised the issue of statehood during one of the addresses.
