Bharat Jodo Yatra: The reaction from the opposition leaders came after the Centre asked Congress leader Rahul Gandhi to suspend the ongoing Bharat Jodo Yatra if Covid-19 guidelines are not being followed properly. In a letter addressed to Rahul Gandhi and Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot, Union Health Minister Mansukh Mandaviya said, “if following Covid-19 protocol is not possible then the Bharat Jodo Yatra be postponed in the national interest, taking note of public health emergency.”
