Sharing pictures from his visit on Facebook, he said, visited the Sivagiri Math to offer his respects at the samadhi of the great spiritual leader, philosopher, and social reformer, Sree Narayana Guru. Shree Narayan Guru worked tirelessly for the upliftment of the people and had a great influence on the leaders of our freedom movement including Mahatma Gandhi.
AICC general secretary in charge of communication Jairam Ramesh also tweeted about this.

"Wherever they are going they are destroying harmony, they are attacking people, they are dividing people, they are abusing them," he said.
The third day of the Kerala Yatra is progressing amid intermittent rains and huge crowds. The Congress leader said that even blisters would not stop his journey as he and hundreds of passengers marched on the streets without umbrellas even when it was raining.
The foot march will cover 12 states and two union territories. The Bharat Jodi Yatra, which entered Kerala on the evening of September 10, will pass through the state covering a distance of 450 kms, touching seven districts over 19 days, before entering Karnataka on October 1.
