He said the nation was fed up with the vote-bank politics of BJP and its minions, as their only agenda was to divide the people to make gains in electoral politics, while Rahul Gandhi’s Bharat Jodo Yatra was to mend the rekindle the broken spirits and sagging morale of the people, due to the suppression of democratic values and the Opposition, who raise its voice when people in power try to crush the voice for a reason.

Gohil said that the Congress has a history of fighting back from setbacks, and under the leadership of Sonia Gandhi, Congress staged a tremendous comeback, when the Congress-led UPA Government was in power at the Centre for 10 years, there was a time when Congress was in power in 19 States.
