Brigadier Pradeep Yadu (retired) and his team met Gandhi en route and demanded formation of the Ahir regiment in the Army.

The march led by Gandhi has so far passed through Burhanpur, Khandwa, Khargone and Indore districts so far and is currently moving through Ujjain district and will reach Agar Malwa in the evening. The yatra started on September 7 from Kanyakumari in Tamil Nadu.
