Rahul Gandhi is set to launch the 'Voter Adhikar Yatra' in Bihar, a 1,300 km journey aimed at defending the 'one person, one vote' principle. Joined by allies, the march protests alleged voter disenfranchisement by the Election Commission, which Congress accuses of being biased towards the BJP.

Congress leader Rahul Gandhi will lead the 'Voter Adhikar Yatra' starting this Sunday in Bihar. The march, covering over 1,300 km, aims to reinforce the fundamental democratic principle of 'one person, one vote'. The party accuses the Election Commission of disenfranchising voters to favor the BJP.
Rahul Gandhi, along with RJD's Tejashwi Yadav and other allies, will embark on this 16-day yatra from Sasaram, culminating in a rally in Patna on September 1. The intention is to draw attention to alleged voter roll irregularities ahead of the Bihar Assembly elections.
The Congress claims the yatra seeks to mobilize citizen awareness and safeguard constitutional rights. Party figures assert this initiative will highlight the importance of fair voting, with Gandhi positioning the campaign as essential to combating 'vote chori' and preserving democracy.
