A large number of people were seen joining Congress vice president Rahul Gandhi in his padayatra (foot march) from Bandra Bandstand to Dharavi in Mumbai today.

Flanked by heavy security including a contingent of the Mumbai police, Rahul marched amid 'Congress zindabaad' chants and waved to his supporters who surrounded him.

Congress supporters holding placards and waving party flags joined Rahul in the march to Dharavi.

During his march, he also stopped at the Crescent English High School.

Before his march, Rahul interacted with the management students of Narsee Monjee Institute of Management Studies (NMIMS), where he hit out at the Centre over various issues including the GST Bill and terrorism policies.
