Congress leader Rahul Gandhi, who is leading the party’s Bharat Jodo Yatra in Karnataka, attended the iconic Mysuru Dasara celebrations at Chamundi Hills of Mysuru.

Gandhi spoke to a large gathering on Sunday amid heavy rain and that became the Congress’ point for the day. “The BJP government has broken all the records in corruption. They charge 40% for everything and neither the prime minister nor chief minister bother to stop the corruption,” he said at the event, all drenched.
“Uniting India, No one can stop us. From raising the voice of India, No one can stop us. Will go from Kanyakumari to Kashmir, no one can stop the Bharat Jodo Yatra(Sic),” he later wrote on Twitter.
