All India Congress Committee (AICC) in-charge for Gujarat, Rajeev Satav in a tweet said, "In view of the increasing impact of Coronavirus, the Gujarat Pradesh Congress Committee has decided to postpone the Gandhi Sandesh Yatra starting from Sabarmati Ashram on March 12."

We have linked this march with message of saving Constitution and spreading messages of peace and harmony. The march will follow the same path and routine that Gandhi and others followed in the historic march." He said that Prakash Ambedkar, the grandson of B R Ambedkar, will also join on the first day of the march.</p>.<p>He said that anyone who believes in the idea of Gandhi and the Constitution is welcome to join the march. He said that willing individuals will have to make their own arrangements. When asked if Congress leaders are also part of the same march, Tushar said that "everyone is welcome but I think they have their own plans." </p>.<p>"Our idea is spread the message that how some power is trying to change the complexion of the Constitution.

He added that among the participants are students, activists and foreigners who all believe in Gandhi's philosophy of peace and harmony. </p>
