Leelabai Chitale, 93, who had participated in the 1942 Quit India movement, joined Congress leader Rahul Gandhi's Bharat Jodo Yatra for a brief while on Thursday. 93 वर्षीय लीलाबाई चितले से मुलाक़ात बेहद प्रेरणादायक रही। इन्होंने 1942 के भारत छोड़ो आंदोलन में भाग लिया था और आज महाराष्ट्र के बालापुर के पास #BharatJodoYatra में शामिल हुईं। वह चाहती थीं कि यात्रा संविधान बचाने पर फोकस हो। उन्होंने हमारे साथ एक सुंदर संदेश साझा किया। pic.twitter.com/3nB35weTxg
