Congress MP Rahul Gandhi will join the concluding leg of the party’s Goy Rakhonn (Save Goa) Yatra on Sunday, 18 October, stepping up its campaign against the BJP government ahead of the 2027 Goa Assembly elections.
Announcing his participation, Gandhi described the BJP’s tenure as “15 years of misrule and loot”, accusing the ruling party of wrongdoing involving land, public money, jobs, legislators and elections.
“Goa is not for sale. Goa belongs to its people,” he said, urging supporters to join him at Calconda at 3.30 pm to defend the state’s identity, dignity and future.
The yatra, which began on 22 September, is Congress’s statewide mobilisation and voter outreach campaign. The party has framed it around protecting Goemkarponn, or Goan identity, alongside the state’s land, environment and communal harmony.
