The yatra will stop at Harisenganj in the evening and continue to Sakramau in Mauaima for an overnight stay before entering Pratapgarh district the following day.
During the Varanasi rally on Saturday, Rahul Gandhi emphasized the importance of unity, stating that true devotion to the country lies in bringing people together.
