Clashes Erupt as Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra Blocked from Entering Guwahati City
The Bharat Jodo Nyay Yatra, led by Rahul Gandhi, faced disruptions as it was prevented from entering Guwahati city, leading to clashes between Congress workers and the police. Assam Chief Minister Himanta Biswa Sarma had previously stated that the Yatra wouldn’t be allowed into the city to avoid traffic jams. Despite barricades set up by the police, Congress supporters broke through, leading to confrontations.
Rahul Gandhi addressed party supporters on the outskirts of Guwahati, emphasizing adherence to the law despite the clashes. The Yatra, aimed at galvanizing public support and highlighting issues, faced resistance during its final leg in Assam.
