Rahul Gandhi began his Bharat Jodo Yatra in Rajasthan on Monday morning. While speaking at the Bharat Jodo Yatra, Rajasthan CM Ashok Gehlot stated that the media has boycotted 'Bharat Jodo Yatra'.
Quoting CM Gehlot, the official Twitter handle of Congress tweeted, "Media has boycotted 'Bharat Jodo Yatra'. The owner-editor of the media institution is under pressure from the Modi government. Media is the fourth pillar, which has failed to play its role."
