Congress leader Rahul Gandhi is likely to embark on padyatra (foot march) from Kashmir to Kanyakumari to connect with the masses. The yatra was part of discussion during the `chintan shivir` of the party. It is likely to commence later this year in run-up for the general elections, sources said.

Similar padyatra will be organised in each state by the state leaders to push pro-people agenda and highlight the "failures" of the government and plight of the people. The final call will be taken by the CWC, however the party`s interim President Sonia Gandhi has discussed a mass agitation programme against the government on inflation and economic issues.
