Feature: Tejashwi Yadav, leader of the Rashtriya Janata Dal (RJD), joined Rahul Gandhi’s ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ on Friday in Bihar’s Rohtas district. This marked the first public appearance of the two prominent leaders from the Congress and RJD since Nitish Kumar’s departure from the INDIA bloc.
The duo was spotted together in a red SUV on the GT Road (NH 19) in Rohtas district, accompanied by former Lok Sabha Speaker Meira Kumar and Congress MLA Murari Gautam from Chenari. Meira Kumar emphasized the historical significance of the region, being the workplace of Babu Jagjivan Ram, and hailed Rahul Gandhi’s endeavor to bring justice to the people through the ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra.’
Following the roadshow in Rohtas, Rahul Gandhi and Tejashwi Yadav proceeded to the Dhanecha Inter College ground for a public meeting, where they addressed the gathered crowd. The ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ aims to connect with people across the country, highlighting issues of social justice and equality.
Tejashwi Yadav also took to Twitter, expressing his support for the yatra, stating, “Today’s start of Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra from Sasaram Bihar, RahulGandhi”.

The yatra is set to continue its journey, reaching adjoining Kaimur district before crossing into Uttar Pradesh at the Chandauli border. As political alliances evolve and leaders come together to address pressing issues, the ‘Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra’ serves as a platform for engagement and mobilization, resonating with the aspirations of the people for a more just and equitable society.
