Bharat Jodo Yatra enters last lap in Kashmir, Priyanka, Mehbooba join march a day after security fiasco

Pulwama (J-K), Jan 28 (PTI) The Congress' Bharat Jodo Yatra Saturday entered its last lap as the Rahul Gandhi-led march was joined by his sister Priyanka Gandhi Vadra and PDP chief Mehbooba Mufti, who termed the initiative "a breath of fresh air".

Rahul Gandhi resumed his walk from Chursoo in south Kashmir's Awantipora at 9.20 am, a day after cancelling the march in Anantnag after his party alleged that police arrangements by the J-K administration "completely collapsed" during the yatra.

Reacting to the allegation, the Jammu and Kashmir administration had said pressure on security resources due to the size of the crowd, larger than planned, may have created an impression of lack of security arrangements during the march.
