#Politics | Rahul’s Sunday dash and dance: Brisk start to Day 53 of Bharat Jodo Yatra | Political Pulse News,The Indian Express

Congress leader sprints along with some children, matches steps with women performing a traditional Bathukamma festival dance.

The Bharat Jodo Yatra’s Twitter account shared a video of Gandhi sprinting along with kids who were walking along with him. Posting the video, the Yatra’s official account wrote, “Out for a marathon, but let’s sprint”. It added: “While we are walking, let’s bring up speed, let’s unite to bring together the country.”

Congress leaders were all praise for Gandhi. Youth Congress president Srinivas BV shared a photo of the leader mid-run on Twitter with the caption: “53rd Day | 1350+ KM | Energy Level (fire emoji).”

Former Union minister Milind Deora quoted former US president John F Kennedy. “Physical fitness is the basis for all other forms of excellence ~ JFK,” he tweeted.

In a video released on Gandhi’s YouTube channel on October 28, where he was seen interacting with the party’s leaders in Karnataka, the Congress leader talked about his fitness regimen. “At age 35-40, I used to run almost 10 km every day of my life, except for Saturday and Sunday,” he said, adding that dealing with “problems” while walking during the yatra involved “doing it consistently, little by little, in small amounts”.

Meanwhile, BJP leaders hit out at the video. Vishnu vardhan Reddy, the general secretary of the Andhra Pradesh wing of the BJP, said, “Good! Keep running. Seems no one can catch you on road and you can’t catch anyone in politics!”
