Senior Congress leader Rahul Gandhi accused Prime Minister Narendra Modi of “trying to do match fixing” in other words, to rig the poll process in favour of the ruling BJP.
Rahul Gandhi s Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, aimed at pre-poll mobilisation, is not as successful as his previous yatra. Alliance members have been ditching the party during the current yatra, which started in Thoubal, Manipur and will end in Mumbai. His previous yatra covered Kanyakumari to Kashmir and saw participation from celebrities like Kamal Haasan and Pooja Bhatt.
After Bihar CM Nitish Kumar broke the JD(U)-Congress Mahagathbandhan and joined BJP, key leaders of Farooq Abdullah-led National Conference have joined the Bhartiya Janata Party.
