Delhi, India | August 16, 2025 — Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is set to launch the ‘Vote Adhikar Yatra’ in Bihar on August 17, aiming to engage with voters and raise awareness about voting rights ahead of upcoming elections. Former State Congress president Akhilesh Prasad Singh confirmed that Rahul Gandhi is likely to stay in Bihar for over two weeks while the Yatra continues.
The ‘Vote Adhikar Yatra’ will cover several districts in Bihar, with a focus on educating citizens about the importance of voting, voter registration, and electoral participation. Party leaders hope the campaign will energize grassroots support and motivate first-time voters to exercise their democratic rights.
Rahul Gandhi is expected to interact with local leaders, youth groups, and community organizations throughout the Yatra. The initiative reflects the Congress party’s effort to strengthen its presence in Bihar while promoting civic engagement among the electorate.
Political analysts suggest that while the Yatra primarily emphasizes voter awareness, it could also help consolidate the party’s outreach ahead of the upcoming assembly and parliamentary elections. Party sources said the Yatra will involve rallies, public meetings, and door-to-door campaigns, making it one of the most comprehensive voter education drives in the state this year.
The Congress party has emphasized that the Yatra is non-partisan in nature, focusing on the empowerment of citizens through knowledge of their voting rights. However, given Rahul Gandhi’s active involvement, the campaign is expected to generate significant media attention and public interest.
