Senior leader Rahul Gandhi's upcoming east-to-west march is scheduled to cover 6,700 kms over 66 days, across 15 states and 110 districts. The yatra, where Gandhi will largely travel by bus, is scheduled to begin on January 14 from Imphal and end in Mumbai on March 20.
On Wednesday morning, a Congress delegation led by state unit chief K Meghachandra met chief minister N Biren Singh at his residence in Imphal and requested permission to start the yatra from Hafta Kangjeibung, a popular public ground in Imphal East district. After the meeting, the Congress said that the CM refused to grant permission for the venue.
