He said Congress legislators will join the Bharat Jodo Yatra on December 15.
"On 15th December, all our legislators under the leadership of honorable PCC Pratibha Singh will go to Bharat Jodo Yatra. We will attend the evening session and in the coming times, we have the Vidhan Sabha session and oath. Dates are yet to be finalized," said the Chief Minister.

The decision will be taken then, but one thing is certain about the promises that we have made to the people, we will keep our promises in any circumstances in a time-bound manner. Especially the announcement of OPS that we have made and have said that we will deliver in 10 days or the first cabinet, so no one should have doubts about it," said Agnihotri.
