It will pass through Dahod, Panchmahal, Chhota Udepur, Bharuch, Tapi, Surat and Navsari districts before entering adjoining Maharashtra on the evening of March 10, Doshi said.
The Congress’ pre-national election mass outreach campaign, which began from violence-hit Manipur, will pass through 100 Lok Sabha constituencies in 15 states and the Congress believes it will prove as “transformative” as Gandhi’s earlier cross-country march (Kanyakumari to Kashmir Bharat Jodo Yatra).
