Kanyakumari, Sep 7 (IANS): Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will launch the 'Bharat Jodo Yatra' here on Wednesday.

Before launching the mega rally, the former Congress chief will take part in a prayer meeting at former Prime Minister Rajiv Gandhi's memorial in Tamil Nadu's Sriperumbudur.

From there, he will arrive Kanyakumari and will visit to Thiruvalluvar Memorial Vivekananda Memorial and to Kamraj Memorial. Also there will be a prayer meeting at Mahatama Gandhi Mandapam, following which, Rahul Gandhi will launch the Yatra in presence Tamil Nadu Chief Minister M.K. Stalin, Chhattisgarh Chief Minister Bhupesh Baghel and Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot among others.

The three Chief Ministers will hand over the national flag to participants of the rally, which will pass through 12 states and will cover 3,500 km from Kanyakumari to Jammu and Kashmir in five months (150 days). As many as 118 leaders will participate in it.

According to a Congress leader, the purpose behind the march with national flag is that the party wants other like-minded parties and civil society groups to join the programme.

Ahead of the proposed march, Rahul Gandhi on Sunday has said that the government has blocked all the paths and the opposition has no way but to go to people of the country.

The yatra will reach Kerala on September 11 and will continue there for 18 days before reaching Karnataka on September 30. The yatra will continue in Karnataka for 21 days.

The Congress has said that the padyatra is aimed eliminating hatred.

The tentative list of leaders who will participate in the yatra include Congress Youth leader Kanhaiya Kumar, Pawan Khera and former Punjab Minister Vijay Inder Singla among others.

    During this Yaathra he should not only watch his step but also his mouth. The wise should drill into him now... That every long journey begins with one small step. No short cuts. To attend coveted posts or goals one should bend his back and work. That's all. Hope he learns during this Yaatra.

    It is good to meet people across the nation and understand their tribulations and aspirations... But more important is to tower above smallness and reform the oldest institution of the nation... Selfless sacrifice comparable to freedom struggle will be required to resurrect and re-establish congress... Ideologies of the party are time tested and genuine... But re-selection of leaders is what is called for... Resistance will be thrown by vested interests but throw out the greedy and elevate the real workers and thinkers... We need a statesman in Rahul not a mere political leader...

    Fill the Heart with the oil of love. Place in it the wick of single-pointed mind. Light it with the Knowledge of Truth and remove the darkness of ignorance around you. Just as one lamp can light many lamps; let each youth kindle this Light in many hearts. May my intellect be steady without agitation. May it be clear without anger or passion. May the brilliant light of the sunbeam though my intellect so that perception of the world may be clear, my discrimination subtle, my judgment correct and quick, and my comprehension of persons and situations precise and wise. May he bestow prudence on all of us! May he inspire us towards the righteous cause! May he guide us to speak the truth! May he make us conscious of spirituality! Let us be united; Let us speak in harmony; Let our minds apprehend alike. Common be our prayer, Common be the end of our assembly; Common be our resolution; Common be our deliberations. Alike be our feelings; Unified be our hearts; Common be our intentions; Perfect be our unity.
