The six-km foot march comes just a week after the Gandhis and other top Congress leaders held a huge rally in Rajasthan against the government.
Congress MP Rahul Gandhi will lead a footmarch this morning against the government and the rising inflation in Uttar Pradesh's Amethi, his former Lok Sabha constituency. Priyanka Gandhi Vadra, his sister and the party's UP in-charge, will also be part of this padyatra.
The six-km foot march comes just a week after the Gandhis and other top Congress leaders held a huge rally in Rajasthan against the government.
In an all-out attack on the centre, Mr Gandhi, 51, had lashed out at the ruling BJP from the stage: "Who is a Hindu? Someone who respects every religion and is scared of nobody. Those in power are false Hindus... India is experiencing a Hindutva-vadi raj, not Hindu raj. We want to remove these Hindutva-vadis and bring in a Hindu raj." Congress chief Sonia Gandhi and Rajasthan Chief Minister Ashok Gehlot were present on the stage.
The Congress is using all resources at hand and strategising hard ahead of the assembly elections in five states next year after facing multiple poll setbacks since 2014.
