The party claimed that it was denied permission to hold a roadshow or ‘padyatra’ (foot march) in the main city by the police.
Gandhi will address a press conference at Damdama in Kamrup district, about 75 km from Guwahati, where the Yatra will have its lunch break.
A ‘padyatra’ is scheduled from the Goremari petrol pump in the Barpeta district to Kukarpar, followed by a public address. The night halt is scheduled at Bishnupur.
The Yatra, which started from Manipur on January 14, will culminate in Mumbai on March 20 or 21.
