Over Congress's Bharat Jodo Yatra, a war of words began between the BJP and the Congress after Tamil Nadu BJP chief K Annamalai posted a long Twitter threat and said Rahul Gandhi is famous for 'Bharat Chodo'. Congress MP Manickam Tagore took the opportunity to remind him that Quit India was one led by Mahatma Gandhi in which 'Sanghis never participated'. "Brother it's Bharat Jodo Yatra, led by Rahul Gandhi," Manickam quipped.

Rahul Gandhi will launch the 3,570-km Bharat Jodo Yatra on Wednesday in Kanyakumari which will continue for the next 150 days with the yatris walking across 12 states. Annamalai said Rahul Gandhi should fill the tanks of the vehicles of his convoy in BJP-ruled states 'to save money'.
